Online session options
How Narrative and ACT inform online therapy
Dr. Keating uses Narrative Therapy to help people rethink the stories that organize their lives and relationships. This approach looks at how life events and roles become part of a personal story and helps identify new, more helpful narratives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is used to teach practical steps for accepting difficult feelings while focusing on values-based action. That can help with anxiety, depression, and grief by shifting attention toward meaningful goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss different methods and choose what fits each person's goals and preferences. The process is collaborative - together they try things, notice what changes, and adjust the plan based on real results in daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow for ongoing support between sessions and can fit busy schedules. These options make it easier to get regular help while balancing work, caregiving, or travel.
