How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and personal priorities. Online sessions using this approach usually center on clear, respectful conversation that helps people name what matters and set goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions, CBT often uses worksheets, simple experiments, and homework to practice new ways of thinking and behaving between meetings.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches basic attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase focus. These practices can be introduced in short exercises during a session and practiced throughout the week to reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time based on what is helpful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments around work or caregiving. It can also allow for focused check-ins, time-limited skill work, and flexible scheduling that supports consistent progress.
