Online support

How her approaches translate to online care

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on mapping emotional responses and attachment patterns to help people change repeated relationship or internal cycles. It often helps when emotions feel overwhelming or when connection and intimacy are strained.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where the client sets the pace. It supports people who want to explore identity, self‑esteem, and personal goals in a way that feels guided but not directed.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by teaching practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made or new challenges appear.

Online sessions offer flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or travel. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on the go, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to stay consistent with therapy while fitting sessions into a busy life.
