Online session options
Narrative and values work in online sessions
Senethia uses Narrative therapy to help people notice the stories they tell about themselves and try new ways of understanding those stories. This approach can be useful for relationship problems, identity questions, and patterns that keep repeating.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them while learning ways to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-based ideas guide how she builds trust and connection in sessions, helping people understand relationship patterns and how they affect current life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasnt helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find virtual sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let them avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt narrative and ACT exercises for remote conversations so the work still focuses on values, life stories, and practical steps that fit daily life.
