Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when someone wants to live more in line with what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and then practicing new ways of coping to reduce symptoms like anxiety or insomnia.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Quallich aims to collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their goals and daily life. She will discuss what methods seem most useful and adapt the plan as progress is made.
