She also addresses communication problems, commitment worries, and separation or divorce. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging, and international clients can be seen.

Online support

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on getting to the heart of difficult emotions and how they show up in relationships. It helps people notice patterns, name feelings, and practice new ways of responding to loved ones. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages identifying personal values and taking small steps toward those values while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and aims to build safer, more trusting connections by exploring relational patterns.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, and together you will try methods that fit your situation. That process often starts with a few sessions to see what feels most helpful and then adapts as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls make it possible to read facial cues and have more in-depth sessions. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skill coaching, or ongoing written support between sessions. These options help people access consistent care from different locations and schedules.
