How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says and helps them clarify goals that matter most. It is useful for relationship struggles, self-confidence, and decisions about work or life direction.Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories. The therapist and client look at the narratives that shape feelings and then consider alternative ways of understanding those events. This can be helpful for grief, family of origin issues, and attachment concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that match what the client needs and prefers. This happens together, so adjustments can be made if an approach does not feel helpful.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example allowing a check-in during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or choosing audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Ask about the current session options when scheduling to pick what fits practical needs and daily routines.
