She also supports clients facing chronic illness, fertility stress, or life changes like divorce and aging-related transitions.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and early bonds. In sessions this looks like talking through how past caregiving roles shaped trust, closeness, and expectations in current relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines thinking and behavior patterns. Work with CBT often includes identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying simple behavior experiments to test new ways of responding.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist listens to current problems, goals, and preferences, then suggests methods to try. Over a few sessions the approach can be adjusted based on what helps most, combining relational work with concrete CBT exercises when useful.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use video or phone in ways that match their schedule or bandwidth. A therapist will discuss what fits a client's routine and suggest a practical schedule to keep progress moving.
