Approaches that translate well to online care

Online sessions can use several of her core approaches. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple breathing and grounding exercises to reduce anxiety and reactivity; it fits well into short practices clients can use between sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that helps reduce the intensity of troubling memories through guided processing and can be adapted for video or phone work. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on specific goals and small, doable steps, making progress measurable in online check-ins.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will listen to your goals and try methods that match how you prefer to work. If one approach isn’t a good fit, she will discuss alternatives and adjust the plan together so you know what to expect.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you work face-to-face when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, reflections after a session, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options add flexibility for fitting therapy into a busy life.
