Practical approaches for online therapy and fit
Leanne uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps even when emotions feel overwhelming. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and moving toward meaningful goals rather than getting stuck trying to change every feeling.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact and teaches concrete tools to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and many day-to-day problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she will suggest methods and gently adjust the plan as the person learns what fits best.
The practical benefit of online work is making sessions easier to fit into busy lives and ongoing care. Because the original biography doesn’t specify session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to schedule meetings around work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
