Therapeutic approaches and working online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate behavior, then identify personal values and take steps that match those values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which often helps with anxiety, mood, and coping skills. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices that help reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness across many everyday problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Patsy will work with each person to choose and adapt methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. Therapy is collaborative - expect discussion, feedback, and adjustments as you learn what helps most.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice skills in their own routines and apply strategies between sessions, which often helps progress feel more relevant to daily life.
