Practical online therapy with approaches that fit you
Vanessa Broughton incorporates evidence-based methods that can translate well to online work, especially when clients want both insight and practical tools.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It can be helpful for concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, and self-esteem by supporting clients in identifying unhelpful patterns and practicing new ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult emotions while taking steps toward what matters most. It is often useful during life transitions, grief, and times when people feel stuck or overwhelmed. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills can support emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, which may be especially relevant when managing anger, intense stress, or relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Vanessa works collaboratively with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, then adjusts the pace and tools to create a plan that feels realistic and supportive.
Online therapy also offers flexibility. Sessions can take place through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can use live chat or text-based messaging when that format fits best. This range of options can make it easier to stay consistent, even with a busy schedule or changing demands.
