Online support
How her approaches translate to online care
Existential-informed work helps people examine meaning, choice, and values. It invites clients to name what matters and to make decisions that fit their life, which can be useful for grief, life transitions, and feelings of stuckness.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed actions toward them, even when difficult thoughts or emotions appear. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress and gives practical exercises to try between sessions.
Attachment-Based ideas look at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. This approach can help with intimacy issues, communication problems, abandonment concerns, and rebuilding trust in relationships.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client’s goals and preferences, trying different techniques when needed and reviewing what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good when seeing facial cues matters, phone calls are helpful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing, flexible check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent progress across distances.
