Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with what matters to them. It is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills development. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills, which can be especially useful for managing intense emotions, anger, and co-occurring difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Miriam works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review options and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility to meet with licensed professionals by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from different locations while working toward actionable goals.
