04Online support
How therapy approaches work online
Elizabeth commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and take action toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems active and replacing them with more helpful habits.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try methods that match those needs and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging works well for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options let people schedule around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity of care.
