How Berline works
Berline draws on client-centered therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. Mindfulness practices are offered to help people notice emotions without getting overwhelmed.
Her background includes work in residential, outpatient, and detention settings. Over the last decade she has helped people with depression, grief, relationship and communication problems, parenting concerns, and caregiver stress. She has experience supporting people with compulsive behaviors, self-harm thoughts, and impulse control challenges.
Berline blends motivational interviewing and solution-focused work when clients want concrete goals and short-term change. That means setting small, achievable steps and reviewing progress together. She aims to give tools and knowledge so people can manage symptoms and move toward the life they want.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's pace. The therapist creates a supportive space and tailors sessions to what matters most to the person. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and practice new behaviors. It often uses exercises and homework that work well between online sessions. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions. These are short skills people can practice outside of sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Berline will discuss goals, preferences, and symptoms and try methods that fit each person's life. Together they will review what helps and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or a quieter moment is needed. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or shorter goal-setting interactions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy days.
