Client-centered therapy emphasizes the client's own goals and choices. The therapist listens closely and reflects what she hears so clients feel understood and can decide their next steps. This approach helps people who need a safe space to sort out feelings and priorities.

Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is practical and often uses short exercises between sessions to build new patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, social fears, and workplace stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and help decide what to try first. Changes can be gradual, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.

Session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm available options when you schedule. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins during lunch breaks or evenings. Some formats also let people do shorter sessions or avoid video when bandwidth is limited. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and comfort.
