How Paula Uses Practical Therapies Online

Paula uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thinking patterns that increase worry or low mood and then try small behavior changes to test new ways of coping. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients set clear, short-term goals and identify what to do next to move toward those goals. Motivational Interviewing is used to help people clarify their reasons for change and strengthen their own motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Paula will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which method or mix of methods to try. The plan is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
