How therapy approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying values and taking small committed actions. It helps when people feel stuck or overwhelmed and want to build a life that matches what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior, offering concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns and improve mood and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, with attention to coping strategies and emotional regulation.
Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions often mix strategies so people can try different tools and see what helps most.
Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example allowing shorter check-ins during a workday break or avoiding travel time. It can also let people use mindfulness and skills practice in the contexts where they need them most. Licensed professionals tailor pacing and homework so progress happens in manageable steps.
Stephanie supports people with stress, anxiety, self esteem concerns, depression, coping with life changes, grief, sleep problems, addictions, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, and related concerns.
