How Sandra’s approaches translate to online therapy
Sandra uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people set the pace and priorities. That approach helps when someone needs a listening ear and guidance tailored to their values and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that make problems worse. Online sessions can include talking through examples, trying new thinking strategies, and practicing small behavioral steps between meetings to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes that bring immediate relief. In remote sessions, this means setting clear, short-term goals and tracking progress in ways that fit daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they adjust methods over time to find what fits best for the person’s needs.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging - offer flexibility for different situations. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can be used for quick check-ins, homework support, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around busy family schedules.
