Online session options
How Narrative and ACT shape online sessions
Stephanie uses Narrative Therapy to help people see their problems as separate from themselves and to rewrite limiting stories. This approach can help with relationship patterns, self-esteem struggles, and making sense of adoption or family histories. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and values while taking small, committed actions; it often helps with anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they will try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so progress fits everyday life.
Confirm current session options before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use different tools from home to practice skills between meetings. Licensed professionals guide how to use these options to support steady, practical progress.
