Background and approach
Meetings begin with building rapport and understanding what is most troubling in day-to-day life. Roticia uses a client-centered approach that keeps the person's goals at the core. She combines this with cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes.
Solution-focused work helps set short-term goals and track progress between sessions. Sessions are tailored to the individual's presenting concerns. She helps people with panic attacks, social anxiety, feelings of isolation, communication problems, guilt or shame, and work toward greater self-love and forgiveness.
Sessions move at a pace that the person chooses. People who prefer clear steps and practical skills often find this approach helpful. Roticia aims to create a calm, predictable space for problem solving and emotional processing.
She invites prospective clients to start with a short matching questionnaire to find a good fit.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Roticia uses well-established therapeutic techniques in simple, practical ways. Cognitive-behavioral work focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behavior to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Solution-focused work breaks concerns into manageable goals and identifies concrete steps that can be tried between sessions. Client-centered work keeps sessions guided by the person's priorities and feelings, creating space to talk through painful memories or recent loss.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to the client’s concerns, try a few strategies, and adjust based on what helps most. Together they set goals and track progress so the plan matches the person’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexibility and many ways to connect. Video calls let the conversation feel close to an in-person visit. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, written reflections, or support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to keep momentum while working on stress, panic, grief, or self-esteem.
