Background and approach
Sessions are practical and geared toward everyday life changes. Her style combines client-centered listening with practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy. She also draws on emotionally focused techniques to improve connection in close relationships.
For trauma, she may use EMDR-informed methods to help process painful memories. With 15 years of professional work experience, she brings steady clinical perspective to sessions without using confusing jargon. Bertha explains ideas plainly so people can try them between meetings.
Spanish and English sessions are available for those who prefer either language. People who are juggling work, parenting, health issues, or major life transitions often find the sessions helpful. Bertha supports exploration of identity, intimacy, and career questions alongside mental health concerns.
She aims to help clients feel more confident handling daily stressors and moving toward clearer goals.
How her approaches adapt to online therapy
Client-centered therapy begins by focusing on the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping clients voice what matters to them. This approach helps with stress, life transitions, and building self-understanding.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns. It is useful for anxiety, mood shifts, sleep problems, and coping strategies for daily stress.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people identify and express core emotions and improve connections in close relationships. It is often used when relationship strain or intimacy issues are part of the concern.
Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try approaches and adjust as needed so sessions match current needs.
Online therapy with video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging gives flexibility for busy schedules or limited travel. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow brief updates, coaching, or support between sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, or health needs.
