How her approaches guide online therapy

Client-centered therapy starts by following the person's lead and focusing on what matters most to them. Sessions emphasize listening, reflection, and adapting the conversation to each person's priorities to make progress feel relevant.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In practice this means identifying unhelpful patterns, trying small behavioral changes, and practicing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It can help people learn mindfulness, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when reactions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and sessions can include a mix of styles as needs change. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that feels useful and realistic.

Confirm session formats before booking, as the biography did not list specific delivery options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules, reduce time spent traveling, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between errands. Talk with the therapist or service to confirm how sessions are scheduled and what will work best for everyday life.
