Background and approach

Her work draws on approaches that break problems into workable parts. Clients practice techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts, build self-compassion, and solve specific problems. Ithaca helps people rehearse new responses so they feel more confident outside of sessions.

She has six years of clinical experience and holds an LPC license in Alabama. That background informs a practical style aimed at getting everyday results rather than abstract talk. Ithaca tailors each plan to the person she is working with.

Many clients come for help with relationship communication, blended family challenges, body image, workplace strain, or major life transitions. Sessions also address issues such as isolation, infidelity, divorce and separation, and finding life purpose. The work is goal-oriented and rooted in each client’s priorities.

Practical approaches for online support

Ithaca uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening-first space where clients set the agenda and bring their priorities. This approach is useful when someone wants to feel heard and to build confidence in their own choices.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and to practice new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, and relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Ithaca will work with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and comfort level, adjusting methods as progress is made. She encourages short experiments between sessions so clients can see what helps in daily life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work, while phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer written communication. These options help people fit therapy around work, school, and family commitments.
