Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Annabel Fields

Dr. Annabel Fields uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and problem-focused, often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy, teaching present-moment awareness and techniques to reduce reactivity. Mindfulness can support emotion regulation, stress reduction, and improved attention to daily experience.

Client-Centered Therapy is another key approach, emphasizing a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience guides the pace and goals of treatment. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, addressing relationship and identity concerns, and exploring personal values.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Dr. Fields works with clients to determine which combination of methods best matches their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support and practical guidance while fitting therapy into everyday life.
