Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Walterson Torchon uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take meaningful actions toward what matters most; ACT is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life transitions. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and the client’s own perspective to strengthen self-understanding and confidence - this approach is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another core method he uses to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill building, which can support work on anxiety, depression, and coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be collaborative - the therapist will work with each person to match techniques to goals, preferences, and how they respond over time. Adjustments are made as needed so the plan fits the individual.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and different communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care with licensed professionals and allow therapy to fit around work, family, and daily life.
