Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Sharon Belhamel uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values, learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and commit to actions that support a meaningful life - an approach that can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns shape current connections and intimacy, helping individuals and couples repair trust, improve communication, and address attachment-related concerns.

In practice, determining the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Belhamel works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and practical needs, and tailors methods accordingly rather than relying on a single technique. Licensed professionals like her often combine elements from different therapies to best support each client.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during transitions, and access care from a distance while working with a licensed therapist who can adapt methods to the online setting.
