How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's concerns. Online sessions using this approach center on the person's experience, with the therapist reflecting and clarifying to help make sense of strong feelings and decisions.Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice the patterns under conflict and hurt. In an online setting this can mean working through emotional responses that affect relationships and intimacy, and practicing new ways of responding to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help the client identify which method or combination fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about approach are collaborative and reviewed as progress is made.
