Approaches and Support Available Through Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, so they can focus on values-based actions. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and patterns that hold people back from meaningful goals.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead. This approach supports self-exploration and works well for issues like depression, identity questions, and relationship concerns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and enhancing interpersonal effectiveness. It can be helpful for people experiencing emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, or patterns of impulsive behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charlotte will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting the work as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity of care when circumstances change, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.
