Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Gottman Method work focuses on improving communication, building shared routines, and reducing hurtful patterns between partners by practicing small, predictable skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people how to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking action toward meaningful values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational patterns shape current reactions and helps people learn new ways to connect and regulate emotion.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Tomasann will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and comfort level. Together they review what feels helpful and adjust the plan over time so work stays relevant and realistic.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet weekly or as needed. Video calls let therapists observe interaction and nonverbal cues for exercises that involve conversation and eye contact. Phone sessions can be used for check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief coaching, skill reminders, and between-session support when a shorter touchpoint is needed.
