Approach and what online sessions involve
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the client’s lead. The therapist listens and reflects to help the person clarify what matters and set priorities. Motivational Interviewing helps people weigh options and find their own reasons to change, useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable goals and on what can change in the near term. It is practical for addressing workplace stress, caregiving strain, or short-term setbacks.Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss these methods and help the person choose what fits their goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time if different techniques seem more helpful.
The site biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to appointments.
