Remote clinical approaches and session options
Tanya integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in remote sessions to combine empathic, person-focused conversations with practical skills work. Client-Centered methods emphasize listening and collaboration, while CBT offers structured techniques to identify and work with thoughts and behaviors. This blend can suit people seeking a collaborative approach that also uses concrete tools and steps.
She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when relevant. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the effects of traumatic events and aims to organize the therapeutic work around those experiences. Motivational Interviewing supports exploration of readiness for change and clarifies personal goals. Online appointments are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences and needs.
