04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for problems like anxiety, depression, social phobia, and habits such as smoking or vaping cessation.
Dr. Curtis approaches choosing methods as a collaborative process. He works with each person to figure out which combination of approaches fits their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying things at a reasonable pace and adjusting as progress is seen.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets people work face-to-face when convenient. Phone sessions can be a good option when lower bandwidth or a quick check-in is needed. Chat and messaging allow short or ongoing contact between appointments and can help people maintain momentum during busy weeks.
