Background and approach
That may mean learning new ways to manage anxiety, working through grief, or creating plans to handle tough moments. Her approach draws on several therapy styles, including client-centered work that follows the person’s lead and cognitive behavioral tools that change unhelpful thoughts and actions. She also uses motivational interviewing to support change and solution-focused techniques to set small, concrete goals.
Narrative techniques can help people reshape how they tell their own stories. Reba aims for a partnership where people feel heard and can try practical strategies between sessions. She explains methods in clear terms and checks in about what is or isn’t working.
This makes it easier to adjust the plan as needs change. People who reach out can expect an empathetic, no-nonsense approach. Reba emphasizes respect and sensitivity while helping people take steps toward more manageable days and clearer direction.
How Reba’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and make sense of difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce worry and low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and supports small steps toward goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the person to try methods that fit their goals and comfort level. If one method does not feel right, adjustments are made so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared materials. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is not desirable. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between meetings or use shorter, more frequent touchpoints. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work from different locations.
