Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Dr. Mary Torok incorporates structured and supportive methods that can work well in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for concerns like stress, anxiety, and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values while building skills to make room for difficult thoughts and feelings, supporting steadier follow-through during life transitions or ongoing stress. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathy, respect, and a strong therapeutic relationship so clients can explore what matters most at their own pace while building insight and self-trust.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Torok collaborates with each client to understand goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then adjusts the pace and strategies to fit the client’s needs over time.
Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Sessions can take place through video calls or phone sessions, and support may be available through live chat or text-based messaging. This can make it easier to stay consistent with therapy when schedules are busy, routines change, or in-person appointments are difficult to coordinate.
