How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the person. In practice this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns back, and helps set goals that feel relevant and doable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to test different ways of thinking and behaving. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to explore ambivalence and strengthen the reasons someone has for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss which methods fit the client’s goals and preferences, and adapt techniques as progress is made. This is a cooperative process where the person’s priorities guide the plan.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm options before booking. People often choose online work to fit sessions into busy days, make check-ins shorter when needed, or avoid travel time. Online sessions can help keep momentum between appointments and make it easier to schedule regular meetings around work, caregiving, or other obligations.
