Online support

How core approaches translate to online work

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, freedom, and responsibility. It helps people facing big life questions, loss, or uncertainty by naming choices and values and using conversation to find direction.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and when someone wants to live more in line with what matters to them.

Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns affect current connections and behavior. It can help with trust, communication, and repeating unhelpful relational patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Frederick collaborates with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and personality. The first sessions often involve trying a few ways of working and agreeing on a plan together.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can work well for brief touchpoints, tracking steps between sessions, or when writing out thoughts feels clearer. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while continuing the same therapeutic focus.
