Online session options
Therapy approaches and how they work online
Felisha uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe the stories they carry about themselves. That work helps when old stories keep someone feeling stuck or ashamed and supports clearer choices and meaning-making.She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while taking values-based action. ACT is helpful for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck from unhelpful avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her approach too, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals guide the work.
Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most useful. Clients help shape the plan as they learn what works for them.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth work and exercises, phone calls can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth, and messaging supports quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other demands while keeping focus on the healing work.
