Online session options
How narrative and emotionally-focused work translate online
Elizabeth blends Narrative Therapy with client-centered and emotionally-focused methods to address painful life events and relationship struggles. Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and try out different interpretations; this can be useful for grief, emptiness, or changes in life role. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and reflection to help people feel understood and to build self-compassion. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying emotions and strengthening emotional connection within oneself, which can help with intimacy-related worries and attachment issues.Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, personal history, and what feels most useful. From there they pick methods and pace that match the person's needs, adjusting over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit daily life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, between-session processing, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping therapy consistent.
