Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and accept difficult thoughts or feelings while committing to meaningful action; it is often useful for managing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve functioning, which can be helpful for mood disorders, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills and can support people coping with intense emotions, relationship turmoil, or self-destructive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Molly works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences. She integrates techniques as appropriate so that treatment fits each person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with this practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allows for flexibility in scheduling and ongoing support between meetings. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills in day-to-day contexts, and access therapy from varied locations while working with a licensed professional.
