Teletherapy approaches and options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are central to Lynn Hedlund's online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is presented in accessible language, focusing on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful steps even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy addresses patterns of thinking and behavior to help identify practical strategies for day-to-day challenges. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance and places the person's experience at the center of the work.These approaches are offered in a collaborative format where therapist and participant shape goals together, selecting techniques that fit individual preferences and circumstances. Sessions can explore skills for coping with anxiety, processing grief, improving communication, or working on relationship and life-transition issues while adapting methods to what feels most useful for the person.
Online sessions are available using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options allow the therapeutic work to proceed in formats that match how a person prefers to connect and engage.
