She also helps clients work through trauma and issues such as guilt, shame, and attachment concerns. Saquia holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor.

Online approaches that focus on values and emotions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what truly matters to them and then take small actions in that direction despite uncomfortable feelings. It is useful for anxiety, mood struggles, and getting unstuck by focusing on values rather than symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding emotional patterns and how they shape reactions and relationships; it can help people respond differently to difficult feelings and improve closeness and trust. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying practical strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together. Online sessions can be done by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments, follow through on homework between sessions, and reach support when life gets busy. Licensed professionals use these formats to offer consistent care and flexible ways to practice new skills in everyday situations.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
