How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches simple exercises to test and change them. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build small, practical steps toward those goals.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their concerns, goals, and preferences, and then try methods that fit those priorities. Plans are revisited so techniques and pacing can be adjusted as progress is tracked.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Different approaches lend themselves to different tasks online - for example CBT homework and skill practice translate well to remote sessions, while client-centered conversations can be effective in any talk-based format. Ask about session length and format when you schedule so you get a setup that fits your routine.
