How her approaches translate to online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and actions. It often focuses on concrete skills for anxiety, depression, and stress, and it can include short exercises to try between sessions.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience. The therapist listens closely and follows what the client brings, helping people feel heard and understood as they decide what to work on.

Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to immediate, practical goals and small steps that lead to quick progress. This approach is useful when people want focused help with specific problems like communication or coping during life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This means trying methods, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that goal-oriented and skills-based approaches translate well to remote conversations, with practical exercises and follow-up tasks that move the work forward.
