How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It aims to create a respectful space where goals come from the person rather than the therapist. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change those patterns, which can help with anxiety and panic. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for people who struggle with intense feelings or sudden mood shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what a person wants to achieve, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where feedback shapes the path forward.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options when booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing therapy during breaks or from quieter places. It can also allow shorter check-ins or phone conversations when a video meeting is not convenient. Discuss format preferences during the matching and scheduling steps to find what works best.
