Using Mindfulness and ACT for online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and life transitions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away by them; these skills help with stress regulation and improving sleep habits.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques to try first, check in on what helps, and adjust the plan as goals and daily life change. Clients and therapist set practical steps to use between sessions so progress can continue outside appointments.
