How her approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and experience, so sessions begin with listening and building a collaborative plan. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily routines. Mindfulness therapy adds brief practices to reduce stress and improve attention to the present moment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match a client's needs and preferences. Clients and the therapist check in together and adjust tactics if something is not helping.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make therapy fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it easier to continue care during life transitions or after natural or human-caused disasters when routines are disrupted.
