She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thoughts and dialectical behavior techniques to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness and emotionally focused approaches help people connect with their feelings and relationships.

She brings four years of professional experience to her practice and holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling. Her background includes work with addiction-related concerns and sexuality topics, informed by a bachelor’s in social and behavioral science with a minor in sexuality studies.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s values and choices and creates space for the client to lead the conversation; it helps when someone wants support that honors their own goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behaviors and gives practical exercises to try between sessions for issues like anxiety and depression. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills useful for managing intense emotions and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they will try strategies that fit the person’s life. That collaborative process helps tailor which tools and techniques are used over time.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, homework support, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around daily life.
