Therapeutic approaches and online care
Tina often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. ACT focuses on accepting difficult feelings while building committed steps toward a more meaningful life.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical, testable strategies. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many daily coping challenges. When trauma memories are central, Tina may incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) techniques to process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tina will discuss options and tailor methods to each person's goals, needs, and comfort. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual's readiness.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide a flexible way to share updates or get support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
