Therapeutic approaches and online support for parents
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values. It can be useful for parenting stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes by shifting focus from avoiding feelings to acting on chosen priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, anger, and attention-related concerns by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new habits.
Jamie treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will help clients try techniques and decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. The plan is adjusted over time based on what works and what feels realistic for the family or individual.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is helpful for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth or movement is a concern, and chat or text fits quick check-ins or brief coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, childcare, and other commitments.
