Online support
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Amy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online sessions. CBT helps people spot patterns of thought that contribute to anxiety or low mood and then try practical strategies to shift those patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build calm in stressful moments.She also brings Motivational Interviewing into conversations when people want help clarifying goals or strengthening motivation for change. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping clients find their own reasons to move forward rather than prescribing steps from the start. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative part of therapy; the therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls are useful when visual cues and more conversational work matter. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging allow for quick check-ins or written reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around busy schedules and life demands.
