How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client leads the agenda. Online sessions can use that same approach by prioritizing what matters most to the client in each meeting and working at the client's pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and then tests new behaviors. Used online it supports short skill-building tasks between sessions that the client can try in real life and review at the next meeting.
Motivational Interviewing helps people weigh options and find their own reasons to change. Online conversations can be used to clarify readiness, set small goals, and plan next steps in a collaborative way.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs with the client and together they will choose which methods to emphasize. This makes sessions more goal-focused and realistic for everyday life.
