Online support

How emotion-focused and skills-based work translate online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on noticing and working with emotions that shape how people relate to themselves and others. Online EFT sessions emphasize naming feelings, tracking patterns in relationships, and finding new ways to respond that create more connection and clarity. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters to them, and take small committed steps toward those values. ACT online focuses on short exercises, mindfulness practices, and tiny behavioral experiments that fit into daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Heather will work with each person to weigh goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they adjust techniques over time, combining emotion-focused reflection with cognitive and values-based exercises as needed.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial expressions and have face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break or a quieter moment. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections, and step-by-step coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to use therapy consistently and try different formats to see what works best.
