Online session options
How Narrative and Practical Methods Work Online
Margaret uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their problems. This approach looks at how past events and meanings shape present behavior, and it helps people reshape those narratives to support healthier choices and relationships.She also draws on client-centered methods, which focus on listening, empathy, and building on a person's strengths, and on cognitive-behavioral ideas that introduce concrete skills for changing thoughts and behaviors. Together these approaches can help with anxiety, depression, addiction-related challenges, relationship strain, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try different methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients are partners in deciding which techniques fit their needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or text-based messaging can support brief updates or emotional support between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for different routines and comfort levels.
