Rikki encourages a collaborative process where goals are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made. She invites individuals to take a first step by completing the site’s intake and scheduling process so they can begin working on the issues that matter most to them.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Rikki uses client-centered care and draws on cognitive behavioral and attachment-based ideas to shape online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflective questions, and following the client’s concerns so sessions stay relevant and manageable. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) involves noticing thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, anger, and depressive patterns. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships affect current reactions and help people change how they relate to others and themselves.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rikki collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She checks in about what’s helping and adjusts techniques as progress is made so the plan evolves with the client.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use therapeutic tools from home, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity during life transitions.
