Therapeutic approaches and online care
Wendy uses acceptance and commitment strategies to help people notice difficult thoughts and refocus on meaningful action. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and challenges with motivation. Client-centered therapy is another part of her work and emphasizes careful listening, empathy, and making the session fit the person’s pace and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how problems show up in day-to-day life. Together they try methods and adjust based on what helps most, blending techniques when that makes sense.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face interaction for in-depth work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging supports shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and other daily demands.
