Online support
Online therapy approaches and what they do
Ann draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and habit shifts because it breaks concerns into manageable steps.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and learn to live alongside difficult feelings rather than avoid them. ACT can be helpful for stress, uncertainty, and transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ann will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That process may shift over time as goals evolve.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people keep face-to-face contact when schedules or distance make in-person meetings hard. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins, ongoing skill practice, or brief coaching between longer sessions.
