Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then clarify personal values and take committed action toward a more meaningful life - it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy examines relational patterns formed over time and focuses on improving connection and security in close relationships, which can be especially helpful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it effective for mood disorders, stress, and coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Connor collaborates with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adjusting techniques as therapy progresses to best support growth and healing. This collaborative stance helps tailor care whether the focus is trauma recovery, relationship repair, or skill building.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules and needs. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access therapists from different locations within licensure limits, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each stage of work.
