Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that fit those values. It can help with depression, anxiety, grief, and big life changes by shifting attention from getting rid of painful feelings to building a meaningful life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and test unhelpful thoughts and change patterns of behavior. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, stress, and coping with overwhelming emotions.

Mindfulness Therapy offers brief practices to calm the body and steady attention when emotions run high. These practices are often short and can be used between sessions to manage stress and improve focus.

Curtis approaches technique selection collaboratively. He will talk with each person about their goals, try different methods, and adjust plans based on what actually helps. Finding the right mix of strategies is part of the work together rather than a one-time decision.

Online sessions with Curtis are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and demonstration of exercises. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make short check-ins or brief coaching possible between longer sessions. These options aim to make ongoing care more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
