How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and move toward actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. It can help with worry, sleep and eating issues, and anger. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns that show up in close relationships. It can be helpful for intimacy-related problems and communication struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the person’s goals, everyday routines, and preferences. That means trying an idea, checking whether it fits, and adjusting as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove commute time. Therapists and licensed professionals can also use exercises, worksheets, and mindfulness practices adapted for remote sessions to keep progress moving forward.
