How her therapeutic approaches work online

Sharee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based and client-centered approaches in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Attachment-Based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people shift how they relate to others and to themselves. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's priorities so sessions unfold at a comfortable pace.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Sharee will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide whether to focus on skills-based work, relationship patterns, or a blend of methods that fits the person's situation.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion and visual cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers writing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and keep momentum between meetings.
