Remote therapy options
Ruth offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats provide multiple ways to connect depending on preference and the needs of a session, whether for a scheduled conversation or more frequent check-ins between appointments.
She integrates client-centered therapy, which centers on a collaborative relationship and the client's own goals, with cognitive behavioral therapy, which explores links among thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and practices concrete skills. Trauma-focused therapy is used when work involves processing traumatic events and their ongoing effects. Each approach is described and chosen with input from the person receiving care.
In conversations about fit and format, Ruth reviews which remote option aligns with the work being done and the participant's comfort level. Video can support in-depth sessions, while phone, live chat, or text-based messaging can serve for shorter check-ins or flexibility in communication.
