She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge negative thinking and solution-focused methods to set achievable steps forward. Mindfulness practices and emotionally-focused work are used when they match a person’s needs.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s goals. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them clarify what they want to change, which can help with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It uses simple exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking and to build new coping habits that reduce stress and depressive symptoms.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on naming and working with strong feelings that affect relationships and self-worth. It can be useful when emotional patterns keep someone stuck or when processing traumatic memories.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day reality. That plan can change as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and keeping momentum between appointments. Online work can make it easier to use brief check-ins, practice skills in real time, or continue care when travel or relocation occurs.
