Therapeutic Approaches for Online Sessions

Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma draws on several practical, evidence-informed approaches that translate well to remote formats. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them while clarifying personal values to guide meaningful action - it is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that develop from early experiences and helps repair connection and trust in close relationships - it can be especially useful for abandonment, commitment, and family issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing concrete skills to change them, which supports work on depression, anxiety, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Adrianna works with each person to understand their concerns, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques so clients can practice tools that fit their life circumstances. Together they decide which methods feel most helpful and adjust the plan over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to ongoing care. Sessions may take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to connect from home, balance caregiving or work responsibilities, and maintain continuity when schedules are busy.
