Approaches that translate well to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, committed actions toward them. It helps people live more deliberately when worry, low mood, or distraction get in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and change behaviors that maintain anxiety or depression. It is often used for panic, mood disorders, and stress-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the person leads the pace of change and feels heard.

Picking the right approach is part of the work. Denise collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and daily life. She will adjust strategies over time so sessions reflect what helps most, whether that means more skills practice, values work, or reflective conversations.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and real-time interaction, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or a busy schedule while keeping continuity of care.
