04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Theresa often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, with exercises to practice between sessions.She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without fighting them and then act in line with their values. ACT can help with stress, chronic worry, and motivation to make life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Theresa will talk through options and help pick methods that fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation. Phone sessions are handy when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers typed conversation. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, and daily life.
