Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Evelyn integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address challenges from different angles. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships influence emotional patterns and helps people work through attachment issues, relationship conflicts, and family dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship that supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and adapting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing stress and anxiety.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Evelyn works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to determine which methods fit best with an individual’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access care from home or elsewhere. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, allow work with therapists from different locations, and can be adapted to support ongoing treatment between sessions.
