Antoinette uses a range of therapeutic approaches to fit the person in front of her.

Expect clear conversations about goals and small steps you can try between meetings. The aim is to reduce immediate distress and build skills that help over time.
How Antoinette’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where getting stuck on thoughts limits action.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and habits linked to addiction by offering concrete exercises and homework.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. It gives space for people to lead the conversation while the therapist listens, reflects, and supports clearer decision making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Antoinette will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what methods feel comfortable. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, client-centered work, or a mix will best match the situation.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls let people use full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when lower bandwidth or not being on camera is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short problem-solving, and ongoing support between longer sessions.
