How Sierra's approaches work online
Sierra uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. That approach focuses on separating the person from the problem and finding new, more helpful ways to describe life events and relationships. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her work, which means sessions follow the person's lead and emphasize empathy, listening, and the person's own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, used selectively, breaks down worries and reactions into manageable parts and tests small behavior or thought changes to see what helps.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sierra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that match those needs, and adjust plans as progress is made. The fit between therapist and approach is checked regularly so work stays useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules. Video supports face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Chat and text allow for shorter check-ins and ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
