04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes by shifting focus to what matters most and taking small practical steps toward it.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of behavior that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating problems, and many stress-related concerns because it gives clear tools to try between sessions.
Attachment-Based ideas guide how Kerre looks at patterns of connection and trust that influence relationships and intimacy. That perspective can help people understand how early or current relationship patterns affect feelings and behavior today.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerre will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She mixes approaches as needed and checks in to see what is helping and what needs to change.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls let people talk face to face and work through exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer short, convenient ways to share updates, practice skills, or get support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on progress and usable tools.
