How Theresa’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, meaningful actions toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions show up in relationships and aims to create safer, more connected interactions.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Theresa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they adapt methods from these approaches so the plan fits the client’s needs and pace.
Online therapy with Theresa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls are useful for face-to-face work like practicing communication skills. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, progress updates, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, school, and family commitments.
