04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online counseling
Sandra commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps toward what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most comfortable. That conversation guides which methods are tried and adjusted in a collaborative way.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions take less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can work for check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication.
