Online support options
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Tekisha commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings are present; it can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior by teaching practical techniques to reduce distress and solve specific problems.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different strategies to see what works best. Together you decide which methods match your needs, and adjustments can be made as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter, more frequent touchpoints that can fit between appointments or during busy days. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other life routines.
