How her therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The counsellor follows the person’s lead, reflecting what they say and helping them clarify their own priorities. This approach can help with feelings like shame, low self-worth and uncertainty about decisions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and tests small practical changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, panic, mood disorders and patterns that keep guilt or shame active in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and try different methods together, adjusting what’s used based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process that aims to match ways of working to the person’s needs and preferences.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions fit around work, childcare and travel because they remove travel time and can be scheduled more flexibly. Online work can also make it easier to use shorter check-ins or to continue therapy while changing locations, helping therapy fit into everyday life rather than adding to it.
