How Carol’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them control actions. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward a more meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for issues like panic, obsessive thoughts, and mood shifts. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to bring attention to the present moment. Practicing mindfulness can ease stress, improve sleep, and reduce reactivity to difficult emotions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carol collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She listens to what matters most and adjusts techniques so they make sense in daily life. If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find online work helps them fit therapy into a busy week, maintain continuity during life transitions, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and goals.Areas of focus
