Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility by teaching practical skills for accepting difficult thoughts and committing to meaningful action. It can be especially useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and unconditional respect so clients can explore their experiences and find their own solutions; this approach supports growth in areas like self-esteem, relationships, and grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete tools for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and addictions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Peggy works with clients to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she tailors techniques from these therapeutic models to fit each person’s situation. Together the therapist and client determine which strategies to prioritize and how to apply them in daily life.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to continue care during transitions, and to access licensed professionals from different locations, while preserving the same therapeutic principles used in face-to-face work.
