How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and practicing new responses to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for intense emotions and reactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. From there Perry will suggest approaches and adjust methods over time so therapy fits the person's needs and pace.
