How this therapist uses different approaches online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand attachment wounds and improve how they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical skills to reduce anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Confirm session format options before booking since the biography does not list specific online or in-person formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow quicker check-ins, or remove travel time. Some approaches translate well to shorter, skills-focused visits while others suit longer sessions that include reflective conversation. Discuss format and scheduling when you set up the first appointment so sessions fit your routine.
