How Tricia uses common therapeutic techniques online
Tricia commonly draws on person-centered methods that focus on a client's perspective and goals. Those methods prioritize listening and clarifying what matters most to the individual, which can help when someone feels stuck or unsure what to change.She also uses solution-focused strategies that emphasize small, concrete steps. This approach looks for immediate, practical actions a person can try between sessions to reduce stress or improve communication.
Cognitive-behavioral techniques and cognitive-processing approaches are part of her work with trauma and mood concerns. These methods help people notice unhelpful thought patterns, test different beliefs, and develop alternative ways of responding to triggers or painful memories.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will discuss goals, test approaches, and adjust plans based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to use and how quickly to progress.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Ask about session length and scheduling during the matching and booking steps.
