How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy means the work starts with the client’s concerns and priorities. In online sessions this looks like the therapist asking what matters most and following the client’s lead to set the agenda. It helps with stress, relationship strains, and decisions about family roles. Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. Online conversations use open questions and reflection to help someone weigh options and build motivation for steps like setting boundaries or changing routines. Solution-Focused Therapy targets practical, short-term goals and small experiments. In telehealth sessions this often results in concrete homework or brief behavior changes to try between meetings. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their situation, goals, and preferences. That conversation can change as needs evolve. Confirm the specific session formats before booking, since the profile does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time so appointments are simpler to schedule.Areas of expertise
