How these approaches can work online
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own reasons for change and build motivation one step at a time. It is useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about shifting behaviors or habits.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so a person feels heard and understood. This approach helps when someone needs a calm space to sort through feelings and decide what matters most.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going and practices different ways of thinking and behaving. It is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress that get in the way of daily life.
Kari will work together with each person to figure out which approach or combination fits best. Deciding on a method is part of the early sessions and is guided by the client's goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. The process is collaborative rather than prescriptive.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins during a workday, and reduce travel time. They also let people use quieter surroundings or turn off video when that helps them engage. Licensed professionals tailor session pacing and techniques to what works in the moment rather than promising a single outcome. -
