These options make it possible to maintain ongoing contact while working on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Communication choices allow flexibility in pacing and format to match client preferences.



She practices from a client-centered perspective, which emphasizes listening, collaboration, and tailoring the work to each person's goals.
