How her approaches shape online therapy

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting strong emotions that get in the way of daily life. It helps people notice patterns in how they react and learn new ways to respond that feel safer and more effective.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses. It can be useful for people who want to change long-standing ways of relating and feel more supported in interactions.

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s perspective first, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting back what matters most. This approach supports people who need a steady, nonjudgmental space to talk things through and decide their next steps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet when in-person visits are difficult. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer sessions, phone sessions can fit into a break or be easier when bandwidth is low, and live chat or text messaging work for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, or travel.
