Online session options
How narrative and skills-based work translate to online care
Online sessions with Amy often draw on narrative ideas and attachment-focused listening to help people rethink the stories that shape their behavior and relationships. Narrative work means looking at patterns in one’s life story and trying out different perspectives to reduce shame and open up choices. Attachment-based approaches help identify how early relationship experiences influence current reactions and close connections.She also uses client-centered practices and cognitive-behavioral strategies to teach practical skills. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can set their own goals. Cognitive-behavioral techniques provide concrete tools for changing thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily functioning. Amy treats finding the right mix as a team effort and will adjust methods to match each person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging which offer flexibility for different lifestyles. Video lets visual cues guide the work, phone can be faster when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. This range helps people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on their goals.
