Online support options
Approaches that guide online therapy
Saskia uses client-centered therapy to start most work. That means she listens closely and follows the client's priorities, helping people describe what matters and set practical goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors for problems like anxiety, depression, sleep trouble, and ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She will work collaboratively with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what feels useful and adjust plans as needs change so therapy stays focused and relevant.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video lets for face-to-face conversation, phone can be a good option when bandwidth is low, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family, and busy days while maintaining consistent care.
