Online support options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace. In online sessions this looks like guided conversations that start from the client’s concerns and build personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and stress management and can include simple homework between sessions. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to current strengths and small changes that lead to quick improvements, which helps when people want concrete steps and shorter-term progress.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked in the past to decide which methods to emphasize. That plan can shift over time as needs change, and the therapist will check in regularly to make sure sessions remain helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can be a short check-in, and messaging allows ongoing notes between meetings. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep momentum even with busy days.
