Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action toward their goals. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and supports the client’s own ability to find solutions. This approach is particularly helpful for improving self-esteem, building trust, and working through relationship or identity concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching tools for problem-solving and mood regulation.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Annie (Anne) Cummings works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and tailors methods accordingly so the chosen strategies fit each person’s life and circumstances.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals from different locations. These options can support ongoing work between sessions and make it simpler to engage in therapy when in-person visits are not practical.
