How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Patricia uses approaches that focus on values, present-moment work, and practical skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful actions, which can ease avoidance around trauma or anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Patricia collaborates with each person to select methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She will explain options, try approaches together, and adjust plans based on what helps most.
