Online session options
How narrative and ACT approaches work online
Jerrilynn uses Narrative Therapy to help people identify the stories that shape their lives and then rewrite those stories in ways that feel more empowering. This approach suits concerns like trauma, identity struggles, and recurring patterns that keep people stuck.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to teach practical skills for accepting difficult feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and problems with avoidance. Attachment-based ideas inform her work on relationships and intimacy by looking at how early bonds shape current connections and emotional reactions.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then adjust the approach as progress is made. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try and when to shift focus.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video calls let you use visual cues during sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or when being off camera feels easier. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
