How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience first. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s concerns, helping them name what matters and choose next steps. This is useful for people who want a space to be heard and to build confidence in their own choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It often uses simple exercises between meetings to practice different ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, mood problems, and compulsive habits.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps when change feels difficult. It supports people in finding their own reasons to change and building gradual momentum toward goals like reducing substance use or improving financial habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying a way of working and adjusting it based on how helpful it feels.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins during a busy day. It also lets people use tools like worksheets or screen-shared exercises during the session, which can support skill practice between meetings.
