Practical Online Therapy Using Evidence-Informed Approaches

Preston Page, LCSW, draws from approaches that can be especially helpful when life feels stuck, overwhelming, or out of balance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on building psychological flexibility - learning to make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most. It can be a strong fit for stress, anxiety, depression, and big life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers a structured way to notice unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviors and practice new, more workable responses. Many people use CBT to improve coping skills, reduce day-to-day overwhelm, and strengthen routines that support mood, sleep, and relationships.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative style that helps people work through ambivalence and build momentum toward change, often useful when goals feel unclear or hard to start, including around habits and recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Preston works collaboratively with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then adjusts the work to fit the person rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy makes it easier to get support in a way that fits real life. Sessions are available through video calls or phone, with the added flexibility of live chat or text-based messaging for ongoing check-ins and support between sessions.
