How her approaches translate to online therapy

Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding how past harm affects daily life and building skills to manage upsetting memories and reactions. It is often used when people report symptoms from past abuse or overwhelming events and need tools to feel safer in their routines.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and adapting sessions to what matters most to the person. The therapist follows the client's lead, offering reflection and support to help clarify goals and next steps.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. These techniques can reduce distress and help with anxiety, stress, and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then try strategies together and adjust them over time.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let conversations continue when life is otherwise full. Licensed professionals can adapt Trauma-Focused, client-centered, and mindfulness methods to an online setting to focus on practical coping and steady progress.
