How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy places the person's experience at the center. In practice this means the therapist asks simple questions, listens closely, and follows what matters most to the client. This approach helps when people are sorting through life purpose questions or parenting pressures.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and trying different behaviors to test what helps. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and for tackling practical problems such as communication or sleep. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers short skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.
Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan as needed. Together they decide which methods are most useful for current concerns and what to practice between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while juggling work, parenting, or caregiving responsibilities.
