Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Nancy blends evidence-based approaches to shape online work. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and managing conflict, useful for people who want clearer interactions and less reactivity. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-judgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client's pace to build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering structured tools for anxiety, panic, and low mood.

Nancy works together with each person to find the right mix of approaches. She discusses goals and preferences, then adjusts methods as sessions progress. This collaborative process helps match techniques to the problem at hand and to the person's comfort level.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer short, flexible ways to stay connected between appointments. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and keep consistent momentum toward goals.
