How client-centered, CBT, and mindfulness work online

Erica uses client-centered methods that focus on the person’s goals and experience. This approach means the therapist listens deeply and follows what the client finds most important, helping shape sessions around each person's needs.

She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and acting. These methods are useful for concerns like anxiety, low mood, anger, and stressful thinking patterns. Mindfulness practices help people notice strong emotions without getting swept up in them and can be a simple tool for managing sudden anger or ongoing worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erica will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals, pace, and preferences. That plan can change over time as needs shift.
