Online support options
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's perspective. The therapist follows the client's priorities and helps them name what matters, which supports healing from trauma, low self-esteem, and relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, addictions, and mood challenges because it breaks problems into manageable steps and home practice.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those tools help when anger, impulsivity, or overwhelming feelings get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. That process is collaborative and may shift as goals change.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or reduce bandwidth needs. Live chat and text messaging let people send thoughts between meetings and get reminders of skills when they are needed. These options aim to increase flexibility and make it easier to practice strategies consistently.
