How his approaches work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small actions that match what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships and parenting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can discover their own solutions; this approach supports self-direction and confidence. Solution-Focused Therapy keeps conversations practical and goal oriented, aiming to identify what will look different after a few changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
