Online support

How Paulette’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding each person's story. The therapist follows the person's lead, helping them name what matters and decide the next steps. This approach helps with relationship concerns, identity questions, and feeling heard.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down patterns of thought and behavior into small steps to change. It is used to manage anxiety, depression, and mood-related problems by practicing specific skills between sessions. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own reasons for change and strengthens motivation for steps like improving communication or making lifestyle shifts.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Paulette will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest one or a mix of methods. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is working and what is not.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These options give flexibility for scheduling, quieter surroundings, and different ways to engage while working toward goals.
