Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It helps with anger, anxiety, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most and taking small steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and reactive anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of body and emotion, which can help during moments of strong feeling.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nancy collaborates with each person to try methods that fit their needs and goals. She adjusts techniques over time and combines approaches when that better supports progress, so the plan evolves with the client's feedback.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video is useful for hands-on skill practice and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging work well for brief updates, coaching between sessions, or when typing is easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on skill-building and problem solving.
