Remote sessions tailored to values, skills, and goals
Carol integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into online work to support practical change and values-driven choices. Through ACT-informed conversations she helps clients clarify what matters most to them and notice what gets in the way. CBT is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior and practice strategies that reduce distress and build coping skills.She also uses Client-Centered and Solution-Focused approaches when clients prefer a collaborative, strengths-based space or brief goal-oriented work. Those methods emphasize listening, developing immediate steps toward change, and amplifying existing resources. Together these approaches allow flexible pacing: some people focus on skills practice and behavior change while others emphasize values exploration and short-term problem solving.
Carol offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences. Her online sessions are structured to encourage collaboration, clarify goals, and identify next steps that fit each client’s daily life and priorities.
