How Geraldine works
Her style is warm and respectful. She aims to meet people where they are and listens without judgment. Sessions are collaborative; Geraldine tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation and goals.
Geraldine uses practical, evidence-informed approaches. She draws on acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive-behavioral ideas, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to help people build useful skills.

Online support options
Therapeutic ways to work online
Geraldine commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then focus on actions that align with their values. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior, then teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Geraldine will discuss goals, preferences, and how you respond to different exercises. She adapts techniques based on what helps you make steady progress and feels doable between sessions.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and coaching-style support possible between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to try techniques in real life between sessions.
