Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify personal values and take action toward them despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with new behaviors. CBT is frequently applied to anxiety, obsessive thoughts, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relational patterns that began early in life and how they affect current connections and intimacy.Megan will work with each person to find the best fit among these approaches. She treats the choice of method as collaborative and adjusts techniques to match goals, daily life needs, and what feels useful in sessions. The plan can change as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face for skill demonstrations and deeper conversations. Phone can be a lower-bandwidth option for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, and follow-up between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy schedule.
