How her approaches work in online therapy

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps that can change a current problem quickly. It focuses on what is working and on building concrete actions clients can try between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then practice new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anger or anxiety.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to choose which methods to try first, adjust the plan as progress is made, and focus on the goals the client identifies. This means methods may be combined or shifted over time based on what is most helpful.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, support follow-up work between meetings, and allow sessions without travel time. It can also make shorter check-ins or scheduled appointments during a workday more practical, depending on the session options offered.
