Approaches for online work and practical change
Tammy uses client-centered therapy and solution-focused therapy to structure online work in a clear, goal-oriented way. Client-centered therapy means sessions begin with careful listening to what matters most to the person and build from their strengths. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on specific, achievable goals and small experiments clients can try between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tammy will work together with each person to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration helps shape session focus and the pace of change so work feels doable.
Practical online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy lives, such as using time between work or family commitments for a short check-in. Because session format options are not specified here, confirm current session options before booking to know what is offered.
