Background and approach
Sessions often focus on skills for managing strong emotions and on clear steps to improve day-to-day coping. Her approach centers on listening closely to each person’s story and goals. She uses client-centered methods to follow a person’s lead while adding tools from dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness.
Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques help clarify values and build motivation for change. Over eight years of clinical work have given Anais repeated experience with issues like attachment and abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiving stress, and immigration-related concerns. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, commitment worries, and fatherhood issues.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Anais helps people match the format and pace that fit their life. Selecting the Start Therapy button and completing the short matching questionnaire is the first step to scheduling a session.
How Anais Uses Therapy Methods Online
The practice combines client-centered work with dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities to help them feel heard and understood. Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete skills for regulating emotions, handling crises, and improving relationships. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and life situation. Together they discuss what is helpful, adjust techniques over time, and pick the pace that feels doable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and work well for shorter check-ins or when someone cannot be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow brief, frequent contacts and flexible timing during the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, or busy days while keeping consistent progress.
