How Kimberlee’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move you toward a life you care about, which can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches clear skills for changing unhelpful thinking and building routines that improve mood and sleep.
Mindfulness therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. It can be useful for stress, anger, and ongoing worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they pick methods to try and adjust the plan as needed in a collaborative way.
