Integrative Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online
Mary Skinner draws from several established approaches to help adults work through challenges such as relationship strain, grief, trauma, addiction and recovery, sexuality, and existential concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and daily habits, then practicing practical skills that support more balanced choices and coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while reconnecting with personal values, so actions can move in a meaningful direction even when life feels heavy. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes a supportive, empathetic relationship that helps people clarify what matters to them and build self-trust as they move forward.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mary works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and pace, then shapes sessions around what feels most helpful in the moment while keeping longer-term growth in view.
Online therapy can make it easier to stay consistent and flexible. Sessions may take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose a format that fits their schedule, comfort level, and day-to-day demands.
