Background and approach

She guides clients through steps toward more peace, clearer choices, and a greater sense of direction.
How psychodynamic work translates to online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past relationships and early patterns influence current feelings and behavior. In practice this often means talking through memories, recurring reactions, and the beliefs that drive them. It can help when anxiety, depression, or relationship patterns keep repeating.Valerie uses this approach to help clients notice patterns and try small changes in daily life. Together they look at what keeps problems cycling and identify concrete steps to shift those patterns. Finding the right approach is collaborative - the therapist and client decide what feels most useful based on goals and preferences.
Online work makes those conversations easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper dialogue, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option, and live chat or text messaging offer brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats provide flexibility for different schedules and needs, helping people access consistent care without long commutes.
