Background and approach
She adapts techniques to fit a person's beliefs and life circumstances.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and values. In this approach the therapist listens carefully and shapes the work around what the person wants to change, which helps with anxiety, relationship strain, and parenting concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice patterns of thinking that lead to distress and then practice different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing mood or addictive behaviors because it gives clear tools to use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, daily routines, and preferences, then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues when that helps, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging can support quick check-ins, ongoing skills practice, or brief reflections between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to keep consistent work when schedules are busy or travel is difficult.
