Skills-Based Online Therapy with a Compassionate Approach
Stacy Trostler draws from practical, evidence-informed approaches that can translate well to online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them, while clarifying values and taking meaningful steps forward - often useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on concrete skills like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support clients navigating intense feelings, relationship stress, and day-to-day overwhelm. Mindfulness Therapy adds simple practices for building present-moment awareness and steadier responses to stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Stacy collaborates with clients to understand what is bringing them to therapy, what they want to change, and what has or has not helped before. Together, they can shape a plan that fits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences and adjust along the way.
Online therapy also makes support more accessible. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, or choose live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility. These options can make it easier to stay consistent with therapy, even with a busy schedule or changing routines.
