BHow sessions work
How Raylissa Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and difficulties with commitment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that maintain distress and then practicing concrete changes to those thoughts and routines. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, which can help with emotional regulation and rumination.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or a mix will best support the client’s needs and day-to-day life.
