About Charlotte

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small, guided actions toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress. CBT is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or has not helped before. Together they will try approaches and adjust based on what feels most useful and practical for the person’s life.
The therapist's biography does not list specific online or in-person session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also help people access steady care when work shifts, caregiving duties, or distance make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT to remote sessions so the work stays focused on small experiments, values-based actions, and concrete skill practice.
