How her approaches guide work in online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavior changes. It often helps with anxiety, stress, and problem patterns that repeat in daily life. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that explores a person's own reasons for change and strengthens their commitment. It can be useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on concrete goals and small, practical steps that move a person toward what they want to see more of in life.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Sarah will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs and preferences. That work involves trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan based on real results and client feedback.

In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Those practical benefits often help people maintain momentum between appointments and apply new skills in day-to-day settings.
