Online support
Attachment and skills-focused therapy online
Dr. Lieberman uses attachment-based ideas to help people see how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. That approach often involves talking through relationship history, noticing repeating dynamics, and practicing new ways to connect and set boundaries.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that match their values. ACT teaches practical exercises for staying present and moving toward meaningful goals even when emotions are intense. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Lieberman collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust the plan as therapy progresses so techniques match what is actually helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier and therapy more consistent. Video is useful for full conversations and exercises, phone can fit into a short break or low-bandwidth situations, and chat or text works well for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions.
