How Nancy’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions; online sessions can give space to talk things through while the therapist follows the client’s lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors; it often uses short exercises and homework that translate well to remote sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotional responses and relating differently to others, which can be practiced and reflected on during online conversations.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nancy will work with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative decision happens early and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports keeping regular momentum through homework and between-session activities that reinforce new habits and ways of thinking.
