Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Dr. Moran draws on Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories that shape their choices and identities. This approach focuses on separating a person from problem-driven narratives and finding alternative plots that support change and self-respect.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy which emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client's own goals. That helps people feel heard and guides sessions by the person's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in her work as well, offering concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and build new habits for stress, anxiety, and low mood.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust as needed until the mix feels right. Dr. Moran invites feedback and adapts techniques to fit each person's needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and real-time interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a camera is not convenient. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different life routines.
