How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Amy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to calm the body and steady emotions.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find personal reasons to change and Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and identify next steps. These approaches are practical and action-oriented, which can fit well with remote conversations and brief homework between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amy will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice is collaborative and may change as work progresses.
