How CBT, ACT and DBT are used in online work
He commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on noticing and testing thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and problem-solving around work and family stress.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take actions that matter to them even when difficult feelings are present. ACT can be useful for coping with chronic illness, grief, and life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication when strong emotions or relationship patterns get in the way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Sessions may combine skill teaching, behavioral experiments, values-based planning, and regular check-ins to see what helps.
