Online session options
How Narrative and ACT work in online sessions
Many of Kelli's sessions use Narrative Therapy to help people tell and retell their life story in ways that reveal strengths and new choices. This approach can be helpful for grief, identity questions, and making sense of big life changes.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful actions even when uncomfortable feelings are present. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with ongoing stress. Attachment-informed work appears in conversations about relationships and communication, helping people notice patterns that affect intimacy and connection.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kelli collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on goals and preferences. She treats the process as a team effort and adjusts tools over time as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for full sessions and visual cues, phone can fit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth, and text or chat offers quick support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different life circumstances.
