Approaches Heather names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approach and access in online therapy

Heather commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when feelings are difficult, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical techniques to reduce unhelpful thinking and increase effective coping for issues like stress, sleep problems, and mood symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heather will discuss options with each person and together decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process means approaches can shift over time if something else seems more useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and real-time skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier on low bandwidth days and for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to share updates and get support between longer sessions. These options help make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
