She aims to help people notice small progress and build on it. Her style is calm, practical, and focused on real-life changes.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. In this approach the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects feelings, and helps clarify goals so people feel heard and accepted.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It works well for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and testing new strategies between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It gives concrete tools for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clearer communication when feelings run high.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust the plan over time. That collaborative process helps find what actually helps in daily life.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines. Video calls let people read visual cues and work through skills live. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging work for quick check-ins, sharing thoughts between sessions, and keeping momentum when schedules are tight.
