Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Tony Hansen draws from evidence-based approaches that can fit many goals and concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while also clarifying personal values and building steps toward a meaningful life. It can be especially useful for ongoing stress, anxiety, and times when people feel pulled off course by worry or self-criticism. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on patterns between thoughts, emotions, and behavior, helping clients practice new ways of responding to challenges like low mood, anxious spirals, and unhelpful habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, creating space for clients to feel understood and to explore identity, relationships, and personal direction at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tony works with clients to identify priorities, preferences, and goals, then adjusts the pace and methods to match what is most helpful and realistic for day-to-day life.

Online therapy can make support easier to access, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This flexibility can help clients stay engaged in therapy while balancing work, family, and changing schedules.
