How these approaches guide online therapy choices

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people find their own reasons for change. It focuses on building motivation and resolving mixed feelings about difficult choices, which can be useful for addictions, impulse challenges, and when someone feels stuck.

Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past hurt affects current reactions and daily life. It includes grounding and regulation techniques to reduce reactivity and support safer ways of coping with memories and triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision may change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let clients use strategies learned in sessions within their normal routines to test what works between meetings.
