How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort priorities, feel heard, and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress management. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to attachment and closeness. It helps people identify emotional patterns that affect intimacy and connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration means techniques may shift over time as goals change or as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people value online sessions for fitting therapy into a busy life, keeping appointments during work breaks, or avoiding travel time. Online work can also make it easier to use written worksheets, share strategies during the session, and practice new skills in the moment.
