How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting each person's goals. It helps people feel heard and builds a collaborative space to work through depression, relationship strain, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It uses clear steps and exercises people can practice between sessions to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change routines that worsen sleep or eating concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first based on needs, goals, and personal preference. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and priorities shift.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people appreciate online therapy for fitting sessions into busy schedules, avoiding travel time, and making it easier to keep regular appointments. Online work can also make it simpler to follow up on homework tasks, track progress, and maintain continuity when life gets busy.
