How her approaches translate to online care
Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and find internal reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflections to help someone weigh options and move toward goals. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to build trust and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences. Then she will suggest strategies and adjust methods as progress is made. This collaborative process helps match practical techniques to what the person finds most useful.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use methods like CBT homework and motivational exercises between meetings to build momentum toward their goals. -
