How Ellen’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s concerns. The therapist reflects what the client says and helps them set their own goals, which can make sessions feel collaborative and respectful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact; it uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can be helpful for anxiety and panic symptoms.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Ellen will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. The practical benefits often include easier scheduling around work or family, fewer travel demands, and the ability to keep regular appointments from different locations. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and let people use tools like worksheets or screen-shared resources during the session. Ask about current session options to pick the arrangement that fits your routine.
