How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) in her practice focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions and how they shape relationships and personal patterns. EFT can help people clarify painful feelings and try new ways of responding to those feelings.Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the client’s goals and preferences. The therapist follows the client’s pace and uses reflective listening to help people make sense of their concerns.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical steps for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. It often includes small experiments and skill practice people can do between sessions to test what works.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.
