Background and approach
Sessions emphasize clear steps people can use between appointments. She uses methods from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Those tools are adapted to each person's goals and daily life.
She also works with issues tied to family history and parenting - such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood concerns. Communication problems, infidelity, divorce and separation, and caregiver stress are areas she routinely addresses. Her style aims to be respectful and practical.
She invites clients to set goals and try small changes, then reviews what helps. People unsure where to begin can expect an initial focus on what matters most to them and steps they can take right away.

04Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's experience and priorities. It involves active listening and responding to what matters most to the person, helping them feel heard and guiding goal setting. This approach suits people who want a listening space and collaborative planning.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and build coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress. Sessions often include exercises or short tasks to practice between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, known as DBT, emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It offers tools for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and better communication, which can help with anger, mood swings, and interpersonal conflict.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different methods to see what fits. Together you will pick strategies that match your needs and adjust them over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you work face-to-face from a distance. Phone sessions can be a good option when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging provide quick check-ins and shorter, flexible exchanges between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or school schedules.
