How her methods translate to online work

Dr. Ike commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce stress and anxiety. EFT focuses on identifying and naming emotions in relationships to improve connection and communication.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before recommending ways to proceed. Clients and therapist decide together which methods to emphasize as the work unfolds.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
