Online support
Approaches that guide online therapy
Joanette uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name strong emotions and the patterns that keep them stuck. EFT helps when people want clearer emotional understanding and more effective responses to distress.She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify what matters to them and take action in line with those values. ACT is useful for coping with persistent worry, loss, or life changes by teaching acceptance and committed action.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits each person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat are handy for shorter check-ins or when a quieter option is needed. These choices make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
