How Corey adapts therapy approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite difficult feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, shame and distress tied up with jealousy. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments and behaviour changes. CBT can help break cycles of rumination and worry that feed jealous feelings.Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Corey will talk through your concerns and goals and suggest which methods to try first. Decisions are collaborative and can change as progress is made or priorities shift.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between appointments. It can also make some exercises and worksheets easier to use during a session. If you have questions about how sessions might fit your routine, Corey can discuss practical arrangements when you schedule.
