Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care
Nicole uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify personal values, learn to allow difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and take committed steps toward meaningful goals. This approach can be helpful for managing anxiety, stress, and the persistent distress that follows major life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy is another focus, offering a way to explore early relationship patterns, repair relational wounds, and address challenges related to abandonment, adoption, and attachment issues. It supports understanding how past relationships shape present reactions and close connections.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns and to develop practical strategies for improving mood, reducing anxiety, and addressing anger or self-esteem concerns. All three approaches can be adapted for remote sessions so that skills and insights translate into everyday life.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Nicole collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, drawing on common practices used by licensed professionals and therapists to tailor treatment.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from wherever the client is located within the permitted service area.
