Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Raquel uses client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following what matters most to the person, which helps shape goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical exercises to try between sessions to reduce anxiety or improve mood.

She also incorporates mindfulness techniques to help people notice bodily sensations and grounding when stress rises. Mindfulness practices can be short and easy to use during a busy day, which many people find helpful when coping with life changes or grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That discussion happens over the first few visits and can change as goals evolve.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a schedule, avoid travel time, and use brief skills practice between meetings.
