How her approaches fit into online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's own experience and priorities. It involves careful listening, reflecting what the client says, and helping people find their own answers. This approach is useful for concerns like anxiety, grief, and relationship stress.Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to talk about change when someone feels unsure or stuck. The therapist asks open questions and helps the person weigh options and find internal reasons to move forward. This can be helpful for coping with life changes, caregiving stress, or adjusting to health challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life.
