About Carol
How Carol Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on actions that match what matters most, which can help with anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches ways to test upsetting thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress-tolerance skills. These tools are useful when feelings feel overwhelming or relationships are full of conflict. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your situation and goals, then suggest methods to try together. That recommendation changes if something isn’t working, so clients and the therapist plan the route as a team. If you plan to try online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow practice of skills in real-life settings between meetings. Discuss scheduling and format details when you start so sessions can match your daily routine and goals.Areas of expertise
