Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then take steps that match their values. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an accepting, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows the person’s lead and supports self-directed growth and insight.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Veronica will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is helping and what feels manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for interaction, phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging can fit into busy days. These options give flexibility for scheduling and for choosing the format that best matches a person’s routine and needs.
