Online Approaches - Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Work

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, person-centered approach that helps people explore ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation to change. It is useful for clients facing decisions about behavior change, life transitions, or shifting established patterns.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes practical, goal-oriented conversations that build on existing strengths and small changes to create forward momentum. This approach often helps with stress, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and situations where clients want concrete steps toward measurable improvements.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Dr. Monique Holsey-Hyman will collaborate with each client to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with a licensed professional - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to balance sessions with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, academic commitments, or geographic constraints while maintaining regular contact and continuity of care.
