Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Mary Archibald draws from established methods that can be adapted effectively to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing practical strategies for changing responses, which can be especially useful when stress, anxiety, low mood, or self-esteem concerns start to affect daily life.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach often used with trauma and distressing memories. It helps clients process difficult experiences in a guided way, with attention to pacing and readiness. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes learning to relate differently to thoughts and emotions, building steadiness and present-moment awareness when life feels overwhelming or uncertain.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mary works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand what has and has not helped in the past, and choose techniques that fit their needs, values, and preferences.

Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, or choose live chat and text-based messaging for added convenience. This can make it easier to stay consistent with support during busy schedules, life transitions, or times when getting to an office would be difficult.
