Approaches and Online Care for Everyday Challenges
Narissa frequently draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic environment where the individual leads the pace and direction of change - it is useful for building self-awareness, improving communication, and strengthening relationships. CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, making it effective for anxiety, depression, and difficulties in coping with life transitions. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing stress and emotional reactivity, which can benefit those dealing with grief, trauma-related symptoms, or ongoing stressors.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Narissa works with each person to explore their needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors techniques so treatment fits the individual rather than imposing a single method. This means plans are adjusted over time to reflect progress and changing priorities.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone conversations, and shorter or supplemental work can happen through live chat or text-based messaging. For many people, these options increase access to licensed professionals and make it easier to maintain continuity of care around busy schedules and life responsibilities.
