Approaches for Online Therapy and Remote Care

Sherri uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the client's perspective guides sessions - this approach helps people feel heard and work toward goals at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. EMDR is employed when trauma or distressing memories are a focus; it combines guided attention with therapeutic processing to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and their impact.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work and is determined collaboratively. Sherri will discuss options, consider the client's needs and preferences, and adjust methods over time so care matches changing goals and responses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, while still allowing for consistent, ongoing support and progress.
