Online session options
How narrative and practical methods work online
Danielle combines Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment-based ideas to shape online sessions. Narrative Therapy helps people tell and reshape the stories they carry, making it easier to notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of being. ACT focuses on values and small, committed actions so people can move forward despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-based ideas help identify how early relationship patterns show up now and guide changes in how people relate to others.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Danielle will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and daily life. That means testing approaches, keeping what helps, and adjusting what doesn't, all in collaboration with the client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and exercises. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to capture thoughts between sessions. These options help people keep momentum and practice new skills where they live and work.
