Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Abigail commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centered Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and a nonjudgmental relationship, creating space for clients to explore feelings and build self-understanding. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behaviour and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms like low mood or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Abigail works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the work over time so the approach feels practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access regular support without added travel, and they allow clients to continue work on their wellbeing in ways that fit daily life while working with a registered professional.
