Online support
Approach-driven care available online
Hana commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy into her online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and build small actions that align with those values while learning to sit with difficult feelings.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how those patterns affect connection and boundaries. Together the therapist and client decide which approach or mix of approaches fits best, taking goals, preferences, and life demands into account in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works well for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, travel, or caregiving responsibilities while keeping focus on meaningful progress.
