Online support
How her therapy approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online work uses discussion and reflections to notice attachment themes and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions to identify patterns that keep someone stuck. In an online session this looks like tracking thoughts, practicing small behavior changes, and reviewing results together. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and building motivation in short, collaborative steps.Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist listens to immediate concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggests one or a mix of methods. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when it feels easier to speak without a screen. Live chat and text can be used for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep the focus on practical steps and steady support.
