Online session options

Approaches that shape online sessions

Hunter commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate the problem from their sense of self and to explore alternative stories that highlight strengths and values. That approach can be helpful for grief, low self-esteem, relationship and identity concerns.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small committed actions toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety, depression, or addictive cycles.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your situation and goals, try different methods if needed, and adjust the plan based on what helps you make progress. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools and pace feel most useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is preferred. Live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter, more frequent exchanges and can fit into busy schedules. These options help people balance therapy with school, work, childcare, or other commitments.
