04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Courtney commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches practical skill work for problems like anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns.She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes the person's own perspective and creates space for reflection and self-directed growth. Together, these approaches give options for short-term skill building and deeper self-exploration. Finding the right mix is part of the work; the therapist and client decide together which approach fits the person’s goals and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people have a more face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a check-in fits a short break. Live chat and messaging offer flexibility for quick reflections or for people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep continuity across changes in schedule or location.
