Therapeutic tools that translate well to online sessions
Dr. Sean Spelgatti draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online format. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and practicing new skills to respond differently. It is often used when clients want practical strategies for concerns like stress, anxiety, low mood, and day-to-day overwhelm.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that align with personal values. This approach can be especially useful when someone feels stuck, discouraged, or pulled off course by worry, self-criticism, or life transitions.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional needs, connection, and boundaries. It can support clients who want to strengthen relationships, work through relational patterns, or navigate family and intimacy concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Spelgatti collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and choose strategies that fit the person rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan.
