How her approaches translate to online care

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how past bonds affect current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can use this approach to address relationship worries, family of origin concerns, and attachment-related anxiety through discussion and practical exercises. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and habits into small, changeable steps. In virtual sessions clients might track moods, test new behaviors between meetings, and practice skills together during video or chat-based meetings to reduce anxiety and depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with bilateral stimulation. When appropriate, parts of EMDR can be adapted to remote formats and combined with grounding and stabilization techniques before and after memory work. Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client’s needs, and adjust plans based on how the work is going. That collaborative process helps pick the techniques that feel most useful to each person. Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client work face-to-face for deeper conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier for quick check-ins. Live chat or text messaging are helpful for brief updates, homework questions, or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using methods tailored to the issue at hand.
