Online session options
Using Narrative and Client-Centered Care Online
Elisabeth commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves. In sessions she listens for repeating themes and helps clients try out new meanings and alternatives to old narratives. This can be useful for grief, relationship concerns, identity issues, and transitions.She also practices client-centered therapy, which focuses on understanding each person's view without judgment. That approach is about empathic listening, reflecting what matters, and pacing the work so people feel heard and able to make choices. Motivational interviewing is incorporated when people want help finding or strengthening motivation to change behaviors or habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elisabeth treats therapy as a collaboration and will talk with clients about which methods fit their goals and comfort level. Together they set short-term targets and try steps that feel manageable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, written reflection, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make scheduling easier and help people keep momentum between sessions.
