How Marie’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values. It helps people tolerate difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward a life they care about. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them. Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasizes understanding emotions and improving connection in close relationships, which can help with communication and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then blend methods that fit. The plan is collaborative - she helps people try strategies and adjusts as needed based on what works for them.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and maintain continuity over time.
