How her approaches work online
Client-centered therapy puts the person's experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects feelings, and helps people make their own choices about change. This approach is helpful for building trust and exploring what matters most in relationships and life direction.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and to practice new behaviors that reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, depression, and managing everyday problems.
Emotionally-focused therapy concentrates on emotions in relationships. It helps people identify patterns that create distance or conflict and then practice new ways of responding to build connection and safety in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and as new concerns come up.
Online sessions offer flexibility and several ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging works for ongoing, brief support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue care when life is busy or when travel is required.
