Online support options
How therapeutic approaches fit into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. It helps when people feel stuck by anxiety, depression, or life transitions and want a clear direction for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like panic attacks and social anxiety. It tends to be hands-on and goal oriented. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and naming emotions to improve connection and emotional regulation, which can help with intimacy-related difficulties and strong emotional reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Donna will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Please confirm the current session options before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around a work break, or offering sessions when leaving home is difficult. Many people find remote sessions allow steady progress through practical exercises and skills practice between meetings.
