Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take actions that align with their values. It is useful for people coping with anxiety, persistent stress, life transitions, and difficulties that require a values-based direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaching practical strategies to shift those patterns. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, mood challenges, and problems that respond to skill-building and structured work.

Mindfulness Therapy invites gentle awareness of present-moment experience and supports people in reducing reactivity and improving emotional regulation. It can be a helpful complement for managing stress, chronic pain, grief, and day-to-day overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jennifer Groom-Reid works collaboratively with each client to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She partners with clients to adjust strategies over time so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility and access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, connect from different locations, and continue work between appointments. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver meaningful, evidence-informed support through these modalities while tailoring pacing and format to each person’s life.
