The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a full session is not possible. For some people, audio-only meetings require less bandwidth and can be easier to arrange during a workday, while video sessions support use of visual cues and shared exercises.
