How her approaches fit with online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building a respectful relationship. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most in their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical steps to change patterns that increase stress or anxiety. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, adds skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel overwhelming.

Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and try one or more methods to see what helps. Sessions are designed to be flexible so the plan can shift as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy schedule, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in the settings where stress happens most. Licensed professionals can guide you through practical tools and homework that work well in remote sessions.
