Therapy Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Emily Fitzgerald draws from evidence-based approaches that can be especially practical in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and actions, then practicing new ways of responding. It is often used to support concerns like stress, anxiety, and confidence by building skills that can be applied between sessions.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult emotions while reconnecting with personal values and meaningful goals. Rather than getting stuck in a struggle with thoughts or feelings, ACT encourages flexible coping and value-driven choices, which can be helpful during life changes and periods of uncertainty.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication. It can be a good fit for people who want structured strategies for navigating intense feelings and improving relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Emily works collaboratively with clients to choose methods that align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting over time as priorities shift.
Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule and keep momentum between sessions.
