How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person where they are. It gives space for someone to tell their story and for the therapist to reflect back what matters most, which helps build trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and improve relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try options and adjust as progress and circumstances change.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, offer shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce the need to travel. Many people find that skills practice, thought records, and emotion-regulation exercises translate well to remote sessions when scheduled thoughtfully.
