Approaches that guide online work
Leva often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, which is helpful for depression, anxiety, and coping with challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then recommend methods that fit those needs. That collaborative planning lets clients try techniques and adjust the plan as they go.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Practical benefits include fitting sessions into a busy day, keeping regular check-ins that reinforce new skills, and using focused exercises that translate to everyday life. Online work can make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions and to practice strategies in the settings where problems occur.
