How her approaches fit with online work
Jean uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to focus on present thinking and behavior patterns, helping people notice automatic thoughts and practice new responses that reduce anxiety and improve mood. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how relationships shape feelings and reactions, and to practice ways of communicating and connecting more effectively. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, supports processing of distressing memories and the development of coping strategies for trauma reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jean will work with each person to decide which method or combination fits their goals and situation. She reviews progress and adjusts the plan so sessions stay practical and goal-focused.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the therapist's profile does not list specific online modalities. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some methods lend themselves to regular, structured homework between meetings, which can be convenient to track remotely. Ask about session length and how therapeutic techniques will be used in remote meetings when you complete the matching questionnaire.
