Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Existential Therapy encourages conversations about meaning, choice, and values. In sessions clients talk about what matters to them and how they want to live, which can help with grief, life-purpose questions, and identity concerns.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on deep listening and empathy. The therapist aims to understand each person's worldview and reflect that understanding back so clients feel heard and clearer about next steps.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Together people identify unhelpful patterns and practice small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating problems.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit best for the situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues, while phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging provide quick check-ins, shorter reflections, and ongoing reminders between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or school schedules and to keep momentum between meetings.
