Background and approach
She favors approaches that focus on current problems and real skills, while also attending to each person’s story and values. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what a client needs in the moment. Her typical sessions mix client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to reframe difficulties and set clear, achievable goals. For people with trauma histories she incorporates trauma-focused strategies to address painful memories and reactions. In practice she aims to reduce overwhelm by teaching coping techniques and breaking problems into manageable steps.
She helps clients strengthen communication, manage impulsivity, and rebuild confidence after setbacks. Therapy conversations are practical, with homework or small experiments when useful. Geri offers multiple remote formats so people can choose what fits their life.
She works in English and brings a calm, direct approach that many find reassuring during stressful seasons.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Geri uses cognitive behavioral and trauma-focused ideas alongside client-centered listening to make online therapy practical and focused on change. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and mood regulation. Trauma-focused therapy helps people gently address painful memories and reduce their impact on daily life by using paced, supportive techniques.She works collaboratively to find the best fit for each client. That means discussing goals, trying approaches, and adjusting methods as needed. The therapist and client decide together whether to focus on skill building, narrative reframing, short-term problem solving, or trauma processing based on what feels most helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can pick what suits them. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and deeper work. Phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging let clients check in between sessions or have shorter, focused exchanges. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
