Approaches Barbara names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approach-focused care offered online

Barbara commonly blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people and couples notice patterns in how emotions shape interactions and try different ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Client-Centered therapy emphasizes being heard and respected, using the relationship as a place to try new ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to concerns, ask about goals, and recommend methods that fit the client's needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people read facial cues and have longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter exchanges, or ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while keeping care consistent.
