How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Sexton will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She combines listening with practical skill-building so the plan evolves from session to session based on what helps most.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Many people find virtual sessions useful for maintaining momentum between appointments and practicing new skills in daily routines.
