Therapeutic approaches and what online work looks like

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and supporting a person’s own goals. In this approach the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they hear, and helps people build self-trust and clearer choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings connect. It teaches skills to identify unhelpful thinking and try small, practical experiments that can change reactions over time. CBT often helps with anxiety, low mood, and self esteem work. Mindfulness practice brings attention to the present moment and to body sensations, breath, and emotions. It can help reduce reactivity and create space for different responses to stress or cravings. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Over the first sessions she will check in and adjust the plan so work stays focused and useful. Please confirm current session options before booking because formats were not specified. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting therapy into a busy day, reducing travel time, and keeping appointments during work breaks. Online work can also make it easier to try mindfulness exercises together or to practice skills between sessions without rearranging a commute.
