Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clients to clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and commit to actions that move them toward a more meaningful life. It is often helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that involve avoidance.Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current bonds and emotional responses. This approach can be useful for intimacy-related issues, relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and family dynamics by helping clients understand and shift relational patterns.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing practical strategies to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tracy will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as therapy progresses. Many registered professionals and therapists successfully tailor these approaches for online work, and Tracy draws on her experience as a BACP member when choosing and adapting methods.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or to work across different locations. These options allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable while maintaining continuity of care and practical convenience.
