Background and approach
Dr. Wagner draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions. She uses ideas from these approaches to help clients change unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and build on strengths.
The work is tailored to each persons situation and pace. Many people come for help with parenting and family stress, adoption and foster care concerns, autism or intellectual disability issues, chronic illness or pain, traumatic brain injury, and trauma or abuse. She also supports clients dealing with self-esteem, relationships, and career questions.
With 15 years of clinical experience, Dr. Wagner combines practical tools with steady support. She practices in Georgia and offers services in English.
International clients can be seen as well.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy starts by focusing on what matters most to the person sitting across from the therapist. It emphasizes being heard and understood so clients can explore priorities and make choices that feel right. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy moves quickly to identify small, practical steps that lead to change and build on what already works in a persons life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That plan can change over time based on how things are going, so the process stays collaborative and flexible.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this practice. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into busy days. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep regular sessions and to try approaches that fit daily life.
