Online session options
Approaches and how online sessions work
Danielle uses Narrative ideas to help people look at the stories they tell themselves and notice how those stories shape feelings and choices. Narrative work helps people separate the problem from who they are and try new ways of living that fit their values.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions toward them even when emotions are hard. ACT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions because it emphasizes practical steps alongside acceptance.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Danielle will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. She adapts techniques over time, combining narrative noticing, ACT exercises, and CBT skills as useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or times when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and try different formats to see what helps most.
