Online support
Approach-focused care online
Dr. Maddux uses Existential Therapy to help people explore meaning, values, and the big questions that come with life transitions and loss. In short sessions she encourages reflection about what matters and helps turn those insights into everyday choices.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which involves noticing difficult thoughts and committing to actions that match personal values. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation by teaching simple practices to stay engaged with life even when feelings are hard.
Client-centered therapy forms the heart of her style as well, meaning sessions prioritize the client's perspective and pace. That approach helps people feel heard while they try new ways of coping and relating.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person's needs. Adjustments happen over time based on what feels most useful.
Online work offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, and text or live chat can work for quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and maintain consistent support.
