How Charlotte’s approaches adapt to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and following their pace. In online sessions this means the therapist listens closely and shapes conversations around what the client finds most important. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in day-to-day life. Online CBT often uses short practical exercises and homework that fit into a client’s routine. EMDR is an approach used to process distressing memories by combining focused recall with guided attention methods; when appropriate it is applied carefully to address trauma and intense memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and comfort level. She adjusts techniques as therapy progresses and checks in regularly about what is working.

This profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing for flexible scheduling. They can also make some exercises and short check-ins simpler to do between other responsibilities, helping steady progress without large disruptions to daily routines.
