Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and understand their emotions. Online sessions can guide someone to notice core feelings and practice new ways of responding to them, which is useful for stress, anxiety, and relationship-related emotions.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a trusting space. In remote work this looks like steady, empathetic conversations where the therapist follows the client’s pace and priorities to build clarity and self-direction.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses short experiments and thought-work to change patterns. In online sessions clients might track thoughts between meetings, try brief behavior changes, and then review results together to refine next steps.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person, and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats offer flexibility and easier scheduling. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deep conversation. Phone sessions or live chat can be simpler when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection and quick support between appointments.
