Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking ZsaZsa directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
Approaches that translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's pace. In practice that means the therapist reflects what you say, asks questions that matter to you, and supports your goals. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and try different ways of describing their experiences to create new possibilities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavioral changes to see if they help mood and functioning.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and what feels helpful. Together you can try a Narrative, Client-Centered, or CBT focus and adjust based on what actually works for you.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick coping ideas, or when scheduling a full call is difficult. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and other commitments.
