How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person’s lead; it helps people feel heard and decide on goals that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills useful for strong feelings and relationship challenges.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and what feels workable day to day. That plan can shift as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and support shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow for sessions that focus on skill practice, thought records, and other CBT or DBT exercises between meetings. Ask about how sessions are arranged and what will help you maintain regular contact while balancing other commitments.
