Therapy approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small steps toward what matters. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and practicing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness, and it helps people change how they connect with others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Ringhoff will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. He adjusts techniques over time based on what is working and what the person wants to change.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for check-ins during a work break. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, homework, or people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
