Online session options
How Narrative, Mindfulness, and Motivational Tools Work Online
Jane often uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reshape the stories they carry about themselves. This can include therapeutic writing or guided reflection to separate problems from identity and find new meanings in life events. Narrative methods can help with grief, shame, and relationship struggles.Mindfulness Therapy is used to build present-moment awareness of thoughts, sensations, and emotions. Simple breathing and grounding practices teach people how to interrupt worry, reduce panic symptoms, and respond with more choice. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people clarify personal reasons for change and strengthen commitment, especially around substance use or impulsive behavior.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals, and preferences and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most. Clients are invited to try tools in session and practice them between meetings.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversation and watching for body language. Phone sessions are useful for people with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text can be a brief check-in or a way to reflect in writing while using therapeutic journaling techniques.
