The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can cut commute time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or remove the need to be on camera if that helps you engage. Licensed professionals can use these methods to focus on practical steps you can apply between meetings.
