Online session options
How narrative and action-oriented therapy work online
Danielle blends Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centered approaches in online sessions. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and helps separate the person from the problem so new meanings can emerge. ACT emphasizes identifying personal values and taking small committed actions that match those values to improve daily life. Client-Centered work centers on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and understood as they decide what change matters most.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Danielle works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals, preferences, and current challenges. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan if something isn’t helping or if priorities shift.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when you want more connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or during short breaks. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, journaling-style updates, or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical needs while keeping therapy consistent and ongoing.
