Online support
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values, and life choices. It helps people who feel empty, stuck, or unsure about purpose by encouraging honest reflection and decisions that match personal values.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills for accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and helping people take steps toward goals even when hard emotions are present.
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own direction. It supports self-awareness and confidence by creating space for clients to speak freely and be heard.
Choosing the right approach is often part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that fit and adjust as needed in collaboration with the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging for flexibility. Video is good for a fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit shorter reflections, ongoing support, or when clients prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
