How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and labeling emotions and how they shape patterns. It can help people recognize what they feel and how feelings influence reactions and relationships.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills for noticing thoughts and committing to actions that match personal values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s perspective and uses reflective listening to help people clarify their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) adds specific exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, such as thought records and behavioral experiments.
Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences, trying practical techniques and adjusting over time.
