Online support options
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current interactions. It helps people see patterns in closeness, trust, and conflict so they can form more supported ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers concrete tools to test unhappy thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and shift strong emotions in order to improve connection and reduce reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs, and what feels most useful. That discussion informs whether more skills-based CBT, attachment-focused exploration, or emotionally-focused work will be emphasized. The plan can change as progress is made.
Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls let the therapist and client read facial cues and work in real time. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging work for brief check-ins or when a shorter exchange fits the day. These options help people keep momentum and access care from different locations and schedules.
