Therapy Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Mary Frances Hudson, LCSW, draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can be used effectively in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then practicing practical tools to respond differently. It is often helpful for concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts or emotions while also reconnecting with personal values and taking steps that support a meaningful life. This approach can be useful when grief, trauma reminders, or anxiety feel hard to control and you want new ways to relate to them without getting stuck.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and communication, which can support people who feel overwhelmed or reactive and want steadier day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mary Frances Hudson collaborates with clients to identify goals and preferences, then tailors sessions to what is most helpful and realistic for the moment.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to get support within a busy schedule or during demanding life circumstances.
