Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and encourages action that aligns with personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and motivation challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections; it is often applied to family issues, attachment concerns and relational difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Salome works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to attend sessions around work, caregiving or mobility constraints, and allow appropriately qualified or registered professionals to provide ongoing therapeutic support in ways that suit each client.
