04Online support
How specific approaches guide online work
Amanda commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when working online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful actions toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck. This can help people dealing with loss of purpose, anxiety, or life transitions.Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. These tools are useful for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive or self-harming behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit those needs. She adapts techniques over time so sessions remain practical and focused on real-life changes.
Online therapy offers flexibility for those juggling work, parenting, or other demands. Video calls let people practice skills visually and preserve conversational rhythm. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers no video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, ongoing skill practice, and quick problem-solving between longer sessions.
