04Online support
How Amy’s approaches translate to online therapy
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions help people identify unhelpful thoughts, test new ways of thinking, and practice behavioral changes between meetings to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps toward client goals. Sessions concentrate on strengths and what is already working, and then build brief, achievable experiments to move forward with problems like stress, communication issues, or parenting concerns.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and life demands. She often blends elements from both approaches and adjusts plans as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging work well for short check-ins, quick skill refreshers, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options aim to make regular care easier to fit into a busy life and to help people keep momentum between meetings.
