How Bree's Ways of Working Translate Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps that match their values. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and staying motivated during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, useful for anxiety, sleep issues, and mood shifts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Bree will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before to choose or adapt methods. This collaboration helps tailor sessions to problems such as addiction recovery, ADHD-related struggles, grief, or relationship stress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets people practice skills and get visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to maintain regular appointments, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and use techniques between sessions.
