The approach is straightforward and action-oriented, with time spent on what to try next.

How cognitive and acceptance approaches work in online sessions
Veronica often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building new habits through practice. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress by breaking problems into specific, manageable steps. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help with grief, life changes, and chronic worry.She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and try methods to see what helps most. Adjustments are made based on what the client prefers and what shows practical progress over time.

In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue working together across different locations. Veronica will discuss which session structure best matches scheduling needs and therapeutic goals.
