Therapy sessions include time for education and practical skills people can use outside sessions.
People working with Dr. Thompson can expect a direct, respectful style that models honesty and accountability. She aims to build a collaborative plan, track progress, and adjust steps when needed. She welcomes international clients and provides services in English.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It focuses on meaningful action rather than trying to eliminate unwanted emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early bonds affect current relationships and can be useful when improving intimacy and communication feels important.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Thompson will work together with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. She listens to what matters most and adjusts plans as progress is made.
