Approaches that translate to online therapy
Ariel commonly uses attachment-based work to help people notice patterns in their relationships. This approach looks at how early bonds shape present reactions and helps people try new ways of connecting and setting boundaries.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT, which focuses on practical skills. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests new behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and self-esteem work.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ariel will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. Over time she adjusts the plan based on what is helpful and what feels manageable.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit a shorter check-in or someone who prefers typing. These formats make therapy more flexible for work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on practical progress and skill building.
