How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. It can be useful for anger, grief, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Nancy collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences. She helps clients track progress and adjusts strategies as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for straightforward check-ins during workday breaks. It also supports regular practice of skills learned in sessions, since people can try new tools between meetings and bring questions back to therapy.
