Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Sarah draws from Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early bonds and relationship patterns influence current emotional responses and intimate connections. This approach can be helpful for people working through attachment issues, relationship repetitions, or intimacy-related concerns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so the client’s goals and experiences guide the pace and focus of work. This approach supports people seeking a respectful, strengths-based therapeutic relationship.
In addition, Sarah integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, providing practical tools for anxiety, stress, depression, and coping with life changes. The therapist works with each person to choose techniques that fit their needs rather than prescribing a single method.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together - Sarah assesses priorities, goals, and personal preferences and collaborates with clients to shape a treatment plan that feels effective and manageable. Online therapy extends those options through flexible formats. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow people to access therapy from different locations and schedules, making it easier to maintain continuity of care and integrate sessions into daily life.
