Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
MeiLin draws on client-centered therapy to create a collaborative space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for each person's goals, making it helpful for relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and life transitions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop practical strategies for change. CBT is often applied for anxiety, depression, panic-related concerns, and coping with stress.
Motivational Interviewing is another tool she employs to address ambivalence about change and to strengthen motivation, which can be useful for issues like substance use history, lifestyle adjustments, or setting new personal priorities.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and MeiLin works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions so interventions feel relevant and manageable for each person.
Online therapy with MeiLin is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each client.
