Online therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and trauma-informed CBT
Nicola offers remote sessions that combine Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In plain terms, ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and guides them to take actions aligned with those values, while trauma-informed CBT focuses on understanding how past stress affects current thoughts and behaviors and on building practical skills to manage mood and reactions.
Nicola describes a directive, goal-oriented style, so the work tends to be active and focused on identifying habits of thought, learning strategies to regulate mood, and increasing healthy behaviors. This approach may suit people who want a therapist who both supports them and challenges them to try new strategies.
Remote appointments are available by video, by phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the communication mode that fits their needs.
