How her approaches guide online work
Tessica uses client-centered methods to build a respectful working relationship and focus on each person’s priorities. In this approach she listens, reflects what matters to you, and helps you identify strengths to rely on when facing stress or life change.She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques that look at thoughts and behaviors together. CBT supports learning specific skills to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or change unhelpful routines. Additionally, Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events continue to cause strong reactions; that approach focuses on reducing the impact of traumatic memories and teaching grounding and coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with clients to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying a skill-based CBT exercise for a few sessions, then shifting to client-centered conversations or trauma-focused strategies as needed.
