Dr. Armour uses straightforward, practical steps to help people feel steadier day to day.

Her sessions are described as warm and compassionate. She focuses on helping people set clear goals and build small, sustainable changes. Conversations often include practical tools people can use between sessions to manage mood, improve sleep, or handle difficult conversations.

How Dr. Armour’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on what matters most to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches clear skills to change unhelpful cycles; it often helps with sleep, mood, and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how relationships shape stress and closeness, and it can guide work on communication and connection.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Dr. Armour partners with each person to try methods that match their goals and preferences. Over a few sessions she will help decide which techniques fit best and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit care into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some approaches lend themselves to homework and between-session practice, which can work well with remote appointments. Ask about scheduling and format details when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be planned around your routine.
