How Elizabeth applies therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take actions that align with those values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where someone feels stuck making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with everyday stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first, evaluate progress, and adjust the plan based on needs and goals. That means trying exercises, reviewing what helps, and shifting focus when something isn’t working.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how appointments are conducted. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday or evening routine, reduce travel time, and let people check in from a quieter setting or during a break at work. Many clients find that shorter focused sessions or regular weekly meetings help maintain momentum when dealing with parenting stress, blended family issues, or recovery from addiction.
