How Kerry's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take small steps toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that gets in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain problems. CBT is practical and often includes homework like tracking thoughts and trying new behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect how people connect and handle conflict, which can help with intimacy and communication struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kerry works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. He adapts tools from different approaches so the work feels relevant and manageable for the client.
