Therapeutic approaches and online support
Guadalupe often draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in her remote work. ACT focuses on helping people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful actions - it can be helpful for issues such as addictions, depression, and persistent distress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and how early connections influence current relationships, supporting work on parenting concerns, trauma, and rebuilding trust.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Guadalupe works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The therapist-client relationship guides selection and integration of techniques to best support recovery and growth.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations, accommodate caregiving or work commitments, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult, while still focusing on meaningful therapeutic work.
