Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, chronic health challenges, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for people who struggle with intense emotions and relationship conflicts.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process includes trying techniques and adjusting the plan as progress and challenges emerge.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins during a break at work. It also makes consistent weekly work more feasible for caregivers and people managing health issues, since sessions can often be slotted into the day without a commute.
