Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress where the goal is to build psychological flexibility and purposeful living. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships, helping individuals understand how early and current attachment needs affect trust, communication, and intimacy; it can be especially useful for relationship challenges and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a skills-based approach that identifies and reshapes unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, often applied to anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Tammie approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She works with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. Together the client and therapist determine the mix of approaches that feels most helpful and practical.

Offering sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging extends flexibility for people juggling work, family, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from different locations, allowing therapy to fit more naturally into a client’s life.
