How her approaches translate to online counseling

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. Online sessions can keep that same emphasis by giving time for open conversation and reflection. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tests small changes. This approach works well online when clients practice techniques between sessions and bring observations back to discuss.

Finding the right method is a shared process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and enabling sessions from different locations. It can also make it simpler to continue steady work on stress, anxiety, and life changes while juggling everyday responsibilities.
