Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take purposeful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It emphasizes acceptance, mindfulness, and committed behavior change to support coping with anxiety, depression, addiction, and life transitions.
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s experience and builds a collaborative, empathic relationship that fosters self-exploration and self-worth. This approach is useful for issues such as self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, and adjustment to change.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, offering practical strategies to reduce symptoms and change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often applied for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and compulsive behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael Woosley works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
