Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what matters most and take action toward those values while learning to make space for difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, chronic pain, and situations where people feel stuck.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and replacing them with more effective strategies. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many other mood and behavioral concerns.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, helping clients explore their own goals and solutions at their own pace. This approach supports self-awareness, personal growth, and stronger coping when dealing with relationship, grief, or identity concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Engstrom works with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts strategies over time as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Dr. Engstrom offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
