How her methods translate to online care
Anne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments. CBT is practical and focuses on changing thinking patterns and actions to reduce stress and improve functioning.She also uses Client-Centered principles to listen and respond to each person’s experience, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and work toward them step by step. Those approaches help with common issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and career problems by keeping sessions focused on clear next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to emphasize based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration can include trying a short CBT exercise, setting a single small goal, or using coaching techniques for workplace challenges.
