Using narrative and client-centered work online
Marjorie often uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider new, healthier meanings. That work is useful for issues like self-esteem, life purpose, and coping with changes. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers your experience and lets you set the pace so conversations feel respectful and grounded.Mindfulness is another tool she brings into online sessions to help reduce anxiety and bring attention into the present moment. These practices are brief and skill-based, so clients can try them between meetings and notice small changes in stress and focus. Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work; the therapist and client decide together what fits goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone calls can be lighter on bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging let clients check in or do shorter, scheduled touchpoints without needing to be on camera. These options aim to make therapy more flexible so people can fit it into busy lives and find a rhythm that works for them.
