Therapeutic approaches and online care with Kayla Henry

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is often used to address anxiety, low motivation, and life transitions by teaching skills for psychological flexibility and value-based decision making.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, and it can be helpful for anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and coping with day-to-day stressors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills-based strategies are useful for managing intense emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kayla works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Kayla can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from wherever a client is located in California, support continuity during life changes, and allow therapists and clients to work together in formats that feel most practical and effective.
