Online support options
Therapeutic tools that fit online care
Wendy draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness to shape online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the client's priorities, helping people feel heard and guiding the conversation at their pace. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors to find small changes that reduce anxiety or lift mood. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing skills to manage stress and improve sleep.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy treats approach selection as a collaboration. She will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when people prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for short check-ins, quick problem-solving, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep consistent work on stress, relationships, parenting challenges, trauma recovery, or mood management.
