Background and approach

She also helps people facing issues like attachment wounds, body image, codependency, immigration stress, and compassion fatigue. Her style is warm and interactive. Sessions combine tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment approaches, mindfulness, and attachment-based ideas.

She explains techniques in simple terms and helps people practice them between sessions. She has worked in many settings over two decades, including community mental health and substance abuse services. That background informs a practical focus on coping skills, communication, and rebuilding routines after loss or crisis.

Her time working internationally added perspectives on cultural and immigration issues. People who choose her can expect collaboration on clear goals and step-by-step plans. She emphasizes small, manageable changes and uses measures that make progress easy to see.

The work aims to reduce overwhelm and build habits that support longer-term resilience.

Approach-focused online therapy and flexible session options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on choosing actions that match personal values while learning simple skills to reduce avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns and manage anxiety or mood. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early connection patterns affect current relationships and intimacy, helping people build clearer communication and safer emotional ties.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches so the work stays practical and aligned with what matters most to the client.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a work break. Live chat and text messaging allow quick support between appointments and are useful for brief reflections or homework check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using the same therapeutic approaches as in-person care.
