Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take small, meaningful actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching practical steps to move toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors that reduce symptoms. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress by breaking problems into manageable parts.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Renee will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences and adjust the plan as work unfolds. Clients are invited to try techniques in sessions and report back on what helps so the therapist can tailor the next steps.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for longer sessions and deep work that uses exercises and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, homework support, or quick coping strategies between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping continuity of care.
