Online session options
How Narrative and ACT fit into online therapy
When working online Kipp often uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from troubling stories and see new possibilities. Narrative work focuses on the stories you tell about your life and helps you identify alternative, more helpful perspectives. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches practical skills to accept difficult feelings while committing to values-based actions. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based ideas are sometimes woven in to help understand relationship patterns and how early connections affect current behavior. Kipp treats finding the right approach as a shared process. He listens to your goals and tries methods that match your needs, then adjusts what you do together based on what helps. That collaborative testing helps identify which tools feel most useful. Online sessions offer flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let you have a conversational session similar to in-person work. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are suited to quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or other routines.Common questions about this listing
