Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people notice patterns in their relationships and how early bonds influence current emotional reactions. It can help people who feel anxious or avoidant in close connections to name those patterns and try different ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pacing; the therapist listens deeply and follows what the client brings into the room to build trust and clarity. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their needs and goals. That might mean blending attachment perspectives with client-centered listening and specific CBT exercises, and adjustments are made as the work unfolds. Online formats offer practical advantages for this type of work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues that support attachment-focused discussion. Phone sessions can be useful when a shorter check-in is needed or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to share brief updates, try quick coping skills between sessions, or fit therapy into a workday. These options increase flexibility and make regular contact easier for many people seeking steady therapeutic progress.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
