How her approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what truly matters and take action toward those values. It is useful for coping with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching acceptance of difficult feelings and committed steps forward. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience at the center of sessions, with the therapist offering empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help people clarify their own goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and change behavior patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what you want to change and discuss which methods are likely to help. Together you decide on goals and try strategies that match your needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available session options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Online work also makes it easier to continue therapy when relocating, traveling, or balancing caregiving duties. If you are considering online sessions, discuss how you want to structure appointments so they match your rhythm and goals.
