Online support
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and values when life feels confusing or overwhelming. It can be useful for grief, major life changes, and questions about identity or direction. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's agenda to build trust and clarity. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches clear skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing mood symptoms.Saskia treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust the plan over time. That collaborative process helps match methods to what actually helps someone in daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for habits and skill practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat suit quick check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family routines, or busy days while keeping focus on what the person wants to change.
