Online session options
How narrative and skill-based work translates online
Lisa blends Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered methods to support people in online sessions. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and try alternative ways of understanding difficult events. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values and taking actions that match what matters most. Client-Centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace to build trust and clear goals.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client talk about concerns, try approaches, and adjust over time. Lisa helps set small goals and checks in about what is or isn’t working so the plan can change as needed.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversation and skills practice that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging works well for brief updates, coping strategies between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between meetings.
