How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape how people relate today. It helps when patterns with partners, parents, or caretakers cause distress or repeated conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience, with the therapist offering empathy and support while the client leads what to work on. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and habits that drive feelings and behaviors and teaching concrete skills to change them.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Savannah will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then try methods that match those needs. The process is collaborative and can shift as progress is made or new issues arise.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes ongoing skill practice more manageable for people juggling school, work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
