Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tracy Herriott draws on evidence-informed approaches to help clients build meaningful change and manage symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility - it helps people move toward what matters to them even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by teaching practical skills to reframe unhelpful thinking and develop more effective coping in day-to-day situations. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship conflicts.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tracy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques from these models to match the client’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy with Tracy can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or clients in different locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists when it is most needed.
