Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what they value and take small steps in that direction even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that come with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and shift the emotions that shape relationships and intimacy; it can be helpful when connection and closeness are the main concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Naomi helps clients choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan based on how things are progressing. The process is collaborative, with an emphasis on trying small, achievable steps and reviewing what helps.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions take place. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text messaging suit quick updates, journaling between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on practical change.
