How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting to help people clarify goals and identify strengths. In remote sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead and supports practical problem solving for daily life challenges like work stress or relationship conflicts.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT usually involves setting concrete practice tasks between sessions, such as mood tracking, behavioral experiments, and skill rehearsals for anxiety or sleep problems.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationship patterns. Used remotely, EFT helps people name feelings, notice interaction cycles, and try new ways of connecting in their relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily routine. That choice can shift over time as needs change.
