How her approaches guide online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experiences. It means the therapist listens deeply, follows what matters most to the client, and shapes conversations around the client’s priorities. This approach helps when someone needs a respectful, flexible space to talk through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or improve mood. CBT is often helpful for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then try methods that fit a person’s needs. That process is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy schedule and fewer travel demands. Online options can make it simpler to have a brief check-in when time is tight or to choose an appointment outside normal commuting hours.
