Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, and it encourages committing to values-based steps forward. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when clients want practical skills to live in line with what matters to them.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in close relationships and how they influence current emotional responses and relational difficulties. This approach can support people working through abandonment, attachment issues, or relational trauma by increasing understanding and building healthier relational strategies.

Andreia works collaboratively with clients to identify which approach or combination of approaches fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and she will discuss options and adapt methods as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into a busy life or when in-person visits are not possible. Registered professionals and therapists can deliver meaningful, goal-focused work remotely while helping clients access care from wherever they are located.
