How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s priorities first and shapes sessions around what matters most to them. This helps identify immediate concerns and build a plan that fits a person’s life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and testing small changes to see what helps. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. She will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s goals and preferences, and will adjust approaches as progress is made. Clients help set the pace and decide what feels most useful in regular check-ins.

The biography does not list specific remote session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, remove travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also offer flexibility for caregivers or people managing chronic illness who need appointments that work around other responsibilities.
