Approaches that guide online therapy
Rebecca often uses client-centered work to center the person and their goals. This approach means the therapist listens closely, follows your priorities, and helps you find solutions that fit your life. Mindfulness therapy is used to teach simple awareness and breathing practices that can reduce stress and help with anxiety and chronic pain.Narrative therapy is another tool she brings to sessions to help people reframe difficult experiences. That method looks at the stories we tell about ourselves and opens space for alternative, more helpful narratives. Rebecca blends these approaches to match the issue at hand, whether it's coping with illness, improving intimacy, or managing daily stress.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. She works collaboratively with clients to decide what feels most useful, adapting techniques over time based on needs, goals, and preferences. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video helps with face-to-face conversation, phone calls use less bandwidth, chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep consistent care.
