Online support

Approaches that guide online care

Trina uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's priorities and strengths. This approach focuses on listening and reflecting so the person’s goals guide the work, which can help when dealing with stress, identity concerns, or self-esteem issues.

She also uses solution-focused therapy to identify small, concrete steps that lead to change. Sessions often focus on what is already working and on practical next steps to try between meetings. Motivational interviewing is another tool she uses to explore readiness for change and to strengthen motivation when someone feels stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is done together. The therapist and client discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to shape sessions around personal needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer conversations and interactive work, phone is a good option when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging supports shorter, ongoing contact. These options make scheduling more flexible and let people fit sessions into busy days.
