Online support
How attachment and acceptance work online
Sheila uses Attachment-based ideas to help people notice how early relationships shape current patterns. That work often focuses on identifying connection styles, understanding emotional responses, and practicing new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that reflect personal values. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavior experiments to build different outcomes.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Sheila will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and practical concerns, and then try methods that fit. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, with the therapist checking in to make sure the work still feels useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone works well when bandwidth or camera use is limited, chat is handy for short check-ins or when typing helps to process, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different time zones.
