Remote sessions and therapeutic style
Germe Poston integrates client-centered listening with structured, goal-focused techniques during remote sessions. Client-centered therapy guides the pacing and priorities of work, placing the individual's concerns at the center of each conversation while shaping the topics explored in a compassionate way.Mindfulness-based methods are used to help ground attention in the present moment and to increase awareness of thoughts and bodily experience. Solution-focused strategies emphasize identifying immediate, achievable steps and building on existing strengths to address specific problems. These elements can be combined to support both exploration and practical change within the same course of work.
Poston frames the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process in which the person and clinician co-create goals and next steps. Remote appointments are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing the format to match communication preferences.
