Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care



Marilyn Davis uses several evidence-informed approaches tailored to each client's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action toward a meaningful life, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration so the client leads the pace and focus of change, which supports self-exploration and stronger relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns, offering practical tools for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marilyn works collaboratively with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She combines techniques as needed and adjusts the plan over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit appointments into busy lives, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and engage in therapy from familiar environments. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver structured treatment, teach coping skills, and support progress between sessions.
