How Rebecca’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action even when strong emotions are present. It is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions by encouraging practical steps tied to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and routines. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, and managing ADHD-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be helpful for anger, intense emotions, and relationship strain.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rebecca will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges and then recommend methods that fit. The plan can change over time as needs shift, and she works collaboratively to adjust techniques and goals.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and full sessions, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, and travel, and they allow consistent contact from different locations.
