Online support options
Approaches that guide online work
Linda often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings and still take steps that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and problems with motivation.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors. CBT is practical and often helps with depression, anxiety, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Linda will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change as needs evolve during treatment.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, written reflection, and ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between appointments.
