She focuses on the therapeutic relationship and avoids confrontation or judgment. Sessions move at a client's pace and aim for clear, manageable steps rather than overwhelming plans.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Charlotte uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and often focuses on small experiments or homework between sessions to build new skills.

She also uses client-centered therapy which centers the conversation on each person's experience and priorities. That approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's pace. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is weighing change; it helps clarify values and build readiness without pressure.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods. Together they choose strategies that fit the person's life and adjust them over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging allow brief touchpoints or ongoing written reflection between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
