Therapeutic approaches Frances uses for online care
Frances integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into online work to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping skills - this approach is often applied for anxiety, depression, and stress. She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention and awareness practices that reduce rumination and increase emotional regulation, which can be helpful for trauma responses, grief, and ongoing stress. In addition, her use of Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying strengths and attainable goals so clients can make concrete progress even over a relatively short period of time.
Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Frances works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then tailors techniques so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - provide flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions. Frances adapts session style to what works best for each client and offers a range of remote formats to increase accessibility and consistency in treatment.
