How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects concerns, and helps set goals based on the client's priorities. This approach suits people who want a respectful, person-led conversation about their situation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and for practical coping in blended household challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Decisions about methods are collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
