How her approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead. The therapist prioritizes the person's goals, offers empathy, and helps people find their own solutions to grief, caregiver strain, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical changes that reduce anxiety or lift mood.
Mindfulness Therapy introduces brief practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These techniques can help with stress, compassion fatigue, and coping during end-of-life caregiving.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. That process often means trying a few strategies and adjusting what is most helpful over time.
