How her approaches fit online sessions
Client-centered therapy starts by asking what matters most to the client and shaping sessions around those goals. It helps when a person wants to set their own priorities and make steady changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and practical day-to-day problems in blended households.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those tools can be useful for anger, strong reactions, and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time as progress or obstacles appear.
Details about how sessions are run online should be confirmed before booking. The therapist has noted chat and phone sessions as a practical option; please check current session options when scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time while keeping focus on skills and problem solving.
