Online support
Approach and online care that adapts to your needs
Vicki uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and shift the emotions that drive difficult patterns. EFT sessions often focus on how feelings link to relationship and intimacy concerns and on creating new emotional responses. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values, accept difficult thoughts and commit to actions that matter. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by teaching simple practices to stay connected to what matters.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Vicki works with each person to see which methods feel most helpful and adjusts plans as goals and needs change. She aims for collaboration so clients know why particular tools are used and how they feed into real-life goals.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, brief live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or coaching-style follow ups. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or day-to-day life while keeping momentum between meetings.
