Online support
Online therapy approaches and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Joanette uses CBT to help people learn practical strategies for reducing panic, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and improving sleep and daily routines.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful for people who struggle with strong mood swings, anger, or relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Joanette will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then adapt methods to fit those needs. She combines techniques when that makes sense and checks in regularly to see how the plan is working.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people connect face to face, phone can be easier with low bandwidth, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep up with skill practice between appointments.
