Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Paula Lowden draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to support clients in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them, then take actions that align with their values - it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and unconditional positive regard, giving clients space to explore concerns like self-esteem, relationships, and grief while feeling understood. Existential Therapy explores meaning, choice, and responsibility, helping individuals facing midlife questions, loss, or shifts in life purpose to clarify what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Paula works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach over time as progress unfolds. This partnership helps tailor sessions to what will be most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and caregiving demands, and allow licensed professionals like Paula to provide consistent support even when in-person visits are difficult. The variety of formats helps clients choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable and effective for their situation.
