Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to identify recurring habits in relationships and practice new ways of connecting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. In tele-sessions ACT can guide short exercises and real-life behavior experiments between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it often uses clear steps and homework that work well in video or text formats.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility with several ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for quicker check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options let people fit sessions into busy schedules, use shorter check-ins when useful, and continue work between meetings through written exchanges.
