Online support options
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward a life that matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaches concrete techniques to change them. It is useful for sleep issues, anxiety, depression, and managing cravings or addictive behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kerry will collaborate with each client to choose which methods fit their needs and goals. She adapts techniques over time, mixing skills-based CBT work with ACT or narrative ideas when people want to change habits and reframe their life story.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing thoughts between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain steady progress over time.
