Background and approach

She helps people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, and then practices new ways of responding. Sessions are supportive and flexible. Eileen aims to be encouraging and nonjudgmental while offering specific skills for handling anger, intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue.

She also works with concerns such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and body image struggles. Her work blends client-centered care with tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches, plus mindfulness and motivational interviewing. That mix helps people set goals, manage mood swings, and handle setbacks without losing ground.

Online support

How chosen approaches work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building trust while following the client's lead; it helps when someone needs understanding and support to sort out feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect behavior and mood, and it teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, blends acceptance with skills training for emotion regulation and can be useful for intense emotions and relationship challenges.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they adjust methods over time so the work fits day-to-day life and what the person wants to change.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or mobility limits.
