04Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead. The focus is on understanding each person's needs and building on their strengths, which helps with issues like grief, low self-esteem, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Marsha uses CBT techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking, try different behaviors, and reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms in everyday life.
Motivational Interviewing is a brief, goal-focused method that helps people strengthen their own reasons to change. It is often used when someone is dealing with substance use or wanting to quit smoking or vaping, and it supports clearer decision making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marsha will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend methods to try. The choice of techniques is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth, and messaging or chat work well for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule consistent work and to use tools that suit a person's routine.
