Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and build willingness to face difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that matter to them. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions where values-driven change is a goal.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, coping with change, and managing daily stressors.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and supports the client’s own capacity for growth. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, exploring identity, and navigating relational or emotional concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Liliana Palacios works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques and pacing based on what helps a client feel engaged and make steady progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow people to receive support from home or between commitments, schedule sessions more easily, and maintain continuity of care while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor treatment to each individual’s circumstances.
