Online session options
How narrative and values-based work translates online
Sandra uses Narrative Therapy to help people reshape the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, which can reduce stuck patterns and open new possibilities. Narrative work is useful for identity questions, relationship strains, and patterns that feel unhelpful.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values. ACT supports people facing anxiety, depression, chronic health concerns, and motivation struggles by teaching practical ways to move toward what matters most.
Attachment-Based approaches help identify how early relationship patterns show up now and guide changes in how people connect and set boundaries. This can help with intimacy concerns, abandonment fears, and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sandra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then suggest methods to try together. The plan is collaborative and adjusted as progress and challenges arise.
Online formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into real life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and role-play. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or reflection exercises easy between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep momentum and practice new skills in everyday settings.
