How therapy approaches translate to online care

Geri often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change patterns of thinking and behavior that keep them stuck. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, which can help with anxiety, depression, coping skills, and mood management.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create space for people to describe their experience without judgment. This approach focuses on listening, reflection, and building trust so clients can find their own answers. Together these approaches balance skill-building with emotional processing in sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Geri will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can also use online work to share worksheets, track progress, and practice new skills between meetings.
