Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Amy uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name emotions that drive their behaviors and relationships. This approach can be useful when strong feelings keep coming up and a person wants a clearer way to respond.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions are guided by the person's goals and pace. The therapist focuses on listening and reflecting so people can find their own direction.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different responses. This often includes short practical exercises to change reactions and build useful habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps most. The choice of approach is collaborative and can change over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can work for quick check-ins, and messaging lets people share between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
