How her approaches translate to online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and acting. It’s often used for anxiety, depression, and stress to create practical behavior changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and help manage overwhelming feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning may blend techniques or shift focus as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule and to keep continuity when life gets disruptive. It can allow shorter check-ins when that is useful, or sessions that avoid travel time so people can focus on skill practice and problem-solving during a regular day.
