Online session options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Angela uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine and rewrite the stories they tell about their lives. This approach helps when past events or repeated patterns feel stuck and people want a different way of understanding themselves.She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions follow the client's priorities and pace. That approach is useful for building trust and clarifying personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another tool she uses to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for change, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will listen to your needs and preferences and suggest methods that fit your goals. You will collaborate on a plan and adjust it as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for in-depth conversations and exercises, phone works well when bandwidth is low, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people keep momentum between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when schedules change.
