Online support
How Teresa’s approaches work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete strategies to change them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build more supported ways of relating. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Teresa collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean focusing on skills first, exploring attachment patterns, or mixing methods depending on what comes up in sessions. Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and stay connected across distances. Phone sessions work well when video isn’t possible or when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between meetings, send quick updates, or have shorter check-ins during a break at work. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep progress moving forward.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
