Online approaches that build useful parenting skills
Vickie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and managing daily parenting challenges where changing habits and thinking makes a difference.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values. ACT helps people facing stress, grief, or when they want more meaningful routines in family life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try specific techniques, and adjust based on what is most helpful. Clients and therapist work together to find habits and skills that fit day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick coaching, check-ins, and keeping momentum between longer meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and to practice strategies in real time.
