Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Dr. Neil Summers often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to support people online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking practical steps toward meaningful goals - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and persistent unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns formed early in life and explores how those patterns affect current connections and emotional responses - it can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment worries, and attachment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Summers works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts techniques over time as clients learn what works best for them and as goals evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different lifestyles and needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from different locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each session, while still working with a registered professional toward meaningful change.
