How these approaches work online
Antonella commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her online work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills may also be used to build emotional regulation and distress tolerance for intense moments.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Antonella will talk with each person about their goals and symptoms and suggest which methods to try first. She adapts techniques over time so the plan matches changing needs and what feels most helpful to the individual.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video suits longer conversations and visual cues, phone calls can fit a shorter check-in, and messaging works well for quick reflections or when people prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
