Practical Therapy Tools, Built for Online Support

Garrick Lawton draws from evidence-informed approaches that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful when stress, anxiety, or low mood start to shape daily routines.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while staying connected to personal values. This approach can support people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or discouraged while navigating life changes or recovery work.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills such as emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, offering structured strategies for managing intense emotions and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Garrick works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand what is getting in the way, and choose methods that fit their needs and preferences, adjusting as therapy progresses.

Online therapy also adds flexibility. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, and support can continue between sessions through live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to stay engaged even with a busy schedule.
