Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, invites people to clarify their values and build psychological flexibility. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward what matters, and it can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often used for issues like depression, anxiety, panic symptoms, and mood challenges by teaching practical skills to manage thoughts and reactions.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s experience and relies on empathic listening and collaboration to foster self-esteem and personal growth. It can be especially useful for building confidence, improving relationships, and processing difficult emotions.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jodie works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and situations, adjusting the approach over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, provide continuity when schedules change, and allow people to work with a therapist from their own location while focusing on meaningful progress.
