How her approaches fit into online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. Online sessions can include guided exercises, thought records, and behavior plans to try between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and notice sensations without immediately reacting. These practices can be introduced in a session and practiced at home between meetings.She treats finding the right approach as collaborative. The therapist and client work together to decide which techniques to try first, review what helps, and adjust the plan based on the client's goals and day-to-day demands. That lets sessions stay practical and relevant to immediate concerns.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online work also supports practicing skills where life issues occur, such as rehearsing communication or applying grounding techniques during stressful moments.
