How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening and helping people describe what matters to them; it supports building clearer goals and stronger communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and change behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, useful for intense moods and impulsive urges.Deciding which methods to use happens together. She will talk with each person about their situation, goals, and what feels manageable. That collaborative process guides whether sessions emphasize CBT exercises, DBT skills practice, or a client-centered conversational style.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some people find video helpful for practicing social skills while others prefer audio for a quicker check-in. The therapist will discuss the practical setup and choose formats that match the client's needs and daily life.
