How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can find their own solutions; it helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to clarify values and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and workplace stress. Motivational interviewing concentrates on building a person’s own reasons for change and can help with commitment issues, career shifts, or making parenting adjustments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Clarissa will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels achievable, and then recommend strategies together with the client. That collaboration helps tailor session focus and homework to everyday life challenges.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work shifts, or childcare because travel time is removed. Some formats use video for face-to-face conversation, while others may use phone for shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth needs; ask which formats are offered and what works best for your schedule.
