Online support options
How her approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters and take small, committed steps toward that life. It combines mindfulness skills with practical actions to reduce suffering from anxiety, depression, or life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps repair patterns that block closeness or fuel conflict. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on core emotions in relationships and helps partners or individuals create more supported, connected interaction patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend techniques to try. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging support brief updates, coaching between sessions, or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to attend therapy around work, parenting, and life demands.
