Approaches Deirdre Uses for Online Therapy
Deirdre Levins commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters to them and taking value-driven action - it can be useful for anxiety, stress and persistent worries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, teaching practical skills to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a non-directive, empathic relationship where the therapist offers understanding and support so the client can explore their own solutions - this is helpful for building self-esteem and processing life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Deirdre works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques based on progress and feedback so the plan remains personalised and responsive.
Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or those living at a distance. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access regular support from registered professionals, and fit therapy into everyday life without requiring travel.
