Therapeutic approaches and online care

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathetic listening and collaboration so clients can explore feelings and values at their own pace and build self-compassion.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds to find what feels most effective.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to enhance accessibility and scheduling flexibility.
