Therapeutic tools that translate well to online care

Dr. Cheryl Rushing draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be applied effectively in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and practicing practical ways to respond differently, which can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, depression, and anger management.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in making room for difficult thoughts or feelings while reconnecting with personal values and taking meaningful steps forward. This approach can be useful during life transitions or when motivation and confidence feel stuck. Mindfulness Therapy also plays a role by strengthening present-moment awareness, helping clients slow down reactivity and build steadier coping skills over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Rushing collaborates with each client to shape a plan that fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as therapy progresses.

Online therapy adds flexibility and access, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to stay consistent, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and get support in a format that feels comfortable.
