Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care with Dr. LaShayla Dyer

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed action in line with their values. It emphasizes psychological flexibility - noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate choices - which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship through empathy, unconditional positive regard, and active listening. This approach supports clients who need a compassionate space to explore emotions, process grief, and strengthen self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. It is often used for managing anxiety, depression, and difficulties with motivation by teaching skills that can be applied between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. LaShayla Dyer works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors methods so therapy feels well matched to each person. She may combine elements from different approaches to address immediate concerns while promoting longer-term growth.

Online therapy provides flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing therapy to fit into a busy life and reach people across locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support during tough moments, and choose the format that best suits a client’s daily routine.
