Therapeutic approaches for online work
Stacy uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and problem-focused, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep issues. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches skills for accepting difficult feelings while taking steps that match personal values. ACT can be useful for stress, chronic pain, and recurring emotional patterns.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Stacy will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for longer, conversational work and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to use video. Live chat or messaging can support quick check-ins, skill practice, or shorter touchpoints between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent momentum toward goals.
