Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Existential therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and the values that matter to them. It is useful for people feeling lost, overwhelmed, or uncertain about life direction and for addressing deeper questions around purpose and responsibility. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on accepting thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values; it often helps with anxiety, stress, and persistent unhelpful thinking.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect emotions and patterns of relating. It can be helpful for intimacy problems, communication breakdowns, and issues tied to abandonment or attachment wounds. Dr. Cole treats approach selection as a team effort and will work with each person to find the best fit for their goals and preferences.

Online sessions offer flexibility: video calls approximate an in-person conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing processing between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, manage shorter check-ins, and continue work when travel or schedules change.
