How Heather’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people live by their values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by clarifying what matters and encouraging small, value-based actions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which can help with mood, sleep, and stress-related problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It is useful when impulsivity, intense reactions, or recurring conflict make daily life harder.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Heather will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy provides flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and observing body language. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions and send quick updates or concerns. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or health needs.
