About Scotty
Therapeutic approaches that work online and in life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters most and take small steps toward those values, even when feelings are strong. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where someone wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world actions; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and daily coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people change how they relate to others and themselves. Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and try approaches that fit their needs and preferences. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan over time rather than committing to a single method up front. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing meetings to happen from different places. It also makes it simpler to maintain regular contact while juggling work, caregiving, or health concerns.
