How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people feel understood and involved in decisions. It helps when someone wants a therapist who follows their pace and priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings connect. It teaches concrete tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and change daily habits, which can reduce anxiety, anger, and low mood.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, includes skills for regulating emotions and managing distress. It is useful for people who struggle with strong reactions and need step-by-step strategies for handling intense moments.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust plans as needed. This collaboration helps make sure sessions focus on what matters most to the client.

Confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let someone keep regular appointments during life changes. Discuss format preferences when scheduling so sessions can be arranged to fit work, childcare, and other routines.
