Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters most to you and taking small steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It helps with anxiety, depression, and making life changes that feel meaningful. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience and pacing; the therapist listens with focus and follows your lead to build understanding and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and offers practical strategies to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Betsy will talk with you about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She advises trying methods and adjusting as you learn what helps, so the plan reflects your priorities and pace.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options when you book. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing check-ins from different locations. It also offers flexibility for shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed, and can support consistent work on relationships, mood, and health-related concerns without requiring changes to your daily routine.
