Background and approach

That work often includes learning emotion regulation, grounding skills, and ways to notice thoughts without getting pulled into them. In sessions she also leans on client-centered principles - listening first and following what matters most to the person in front of her. For people who like creative expression, she can incorporate drawing or writing as another way to process feelings.

The focus is always on what feels natural and useful to each client. With ten years of clinical experience in New Jersey, Ingrid brings practical care and steady support. She helps people rebuild self-esteem, handle workplace stress, and move through grief, anger, or relationship strain.

Her work addresses areas such as boundaries, communication, identity, and life purpose. Therapy sessions aim to increase skills that make daily life easier. Ingrid works collaboratively to set goals and track progress so clients leave sessions with concrete tools to try between meetings.

How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can reduce avoidance and anxiety. In online sessions this looks like practicing small values-based steps between meetings and troubleshooting barriers together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments, a good fit for anxiety and workplace stress where concrete homework can make a difference. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and following each person's priorities, creating space for people to set the pace and topics for the work.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify which methods match a person's goals and preferences, and can blend techniques as needed. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can shift if something isn't working.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and skill practice, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
