Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Heather uses client-centered therapy to start most work, creating space for each person to tell their story and set priorities. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people use their own strengths to move forward.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and teach practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT sessions often include clear steps and exercises to practice between meetings. For emotion regulation and relationship skills, she can draw on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques to teach grounding, distress tolerance, and communication tools.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Heather will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they pick strategies and adjust them over time to fit changing needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy lives. Video works well for more in-depth conversation and exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when low bandwidth or hands-free time is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers writing to talking.
