How George’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and when life changes make direction unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It helps with mood, sleep, and repetitive anxious thinking. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the impact of traumatic events and aims to reduce their ongoing hold on daily life through careful processing and coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as sessions progress, keeping collaboration front and center.
