Online support

How her approaches work online

Dr. Thompson uses a mix of approaches to guide work during online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the client's pace; the therapist reflects concerns and helps the person set goals that feel right. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors to identify patterns that increase distress and teaches practical skills to change them. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps when memories or reactions from past events continue to cause problems today.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options, try methods that fit a client's needs, and adjust based on how a person responds. The process is collaborative, with the client guiding goals and the therapist offering tools and feedback.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, written reflection, and people who prefer typing. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
