Online support
Approaches for online work and practical support
Heidi uses the Gottman Method to focus on relationship interactions and communication patterns; this approach looks at everyday behaviors and teaches couples and individuals ways to reduce conflict and increase connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven actions even when emotions are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on understanding patterns of closeness and safety in relationships and works to build more supported ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Heidi will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that match their needs and preferences. She adjusts plans over time and checks in to see what is helping and what needs change so the work stays useful and manageable.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video works well for connection and shared exercises, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives without extra travel, and make it easier to keep consistent progress.
