How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening-based space where the client’s priorities guide the conversation. It helps people feel understood and decide what changes matter most to them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ellen will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean leaning more on listening and support at first, then adding CBT tools or solution-focused steps as needed.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing for more convenient scheduling. It can also support shorter check-ins when a quick problem-solving conversation will do, or allow for longer sessions when deeper work is needed. Since specific session formats were not listed in the original biography, confirm the available online options before booking to match them with your needs.
