04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can try online
Wendy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. She combines approaches when it helps and adjusts strategies as progress and needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep practicing new skills between meetings.
