About Misty
Her sessions are straightforward and person-focused. She listens for how everyday patterns affect mood and choices. Conversations often look at current problems alongside past experiences that shape them. That mix helps people notice what keeps them stuck and which small shifts might help.
Misty uses a few well-known approaches in her work. She draws on client-centered methods to follow the client's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are offered when emotion regulation and coping are the focus.
She also integrates psychodynamic and existential ideas when stories from the past or questions about meaning come up. That means she pays attention to patterns that repeat over time and to how values and purpose shape choices. Her teaching background in psychology and counseling informs a clear, explanatory style.
People who see her can expect practical tools alongside time to talk through feelings and decisions. Sessions tend to combine short-term skill work with deeper reflection when needed. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching steps to schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's concerns. Online sessions using this approach let clients set the agenda and name what matters most, whether that is a current problem or a recurring pattern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Delivered remotely, CBT still uses concrete exercises and homework to test new behaviors and track changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping; those skills can be taught and practiced in session and reinforced between meetings.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That may mean starting with skill-based work and shifting to deeper exploration, or blending approaches from the start.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fewer travel constraints and easier fitting of appointments into a busy week. Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online meetings can make it simpler to keep short check-ins, practice skills in real time, or schedule sessions around work and family commitments.
