How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and meeting them where they are. It involves listening deeply and helping people set their own goals, which can be useful for grief, identity questions, and caregiving stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas bring in skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These tools can support people managing intense emotions or relationship conflicts.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That choice can change over time as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use sessions during breaks at work or when attending medical appointments, making regular support more practical.
