How Rebecca’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s goals and experience. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and supporting the client’s own decisions and strengths. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and a nonjudgmental space to make sense of feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises like thought records, behavioral experiments, and activity planning to reduce anxiety and improve mood. CBT is useful for day-to-day worry and habits that feel stuck.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a method used to work with troubling memories and trauma-related reactions. It involves guided processing to lessen the emotional charge of painful memories and can be chosen when trauma is a central concern.

Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change as the work progresses, and adjustments are expected.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as taking a session during a lunch break or cutting out travel time. It also allows using tools like worksheets and screen sharing for skills practice. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking to ensure they meet your needs.
