How Holly’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's priorities. In practice this means sessions are shaped around what matters most to the person and move at their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves noticing thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. It often includes short exercises and between-session practice to try new thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean using a mix of person-centered listening and skills-based exercises, and adjusting methods as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit appointments into busy days, makes it easier to keep regular sessions, and lets them use shorter check-ins when needed. For others, online work supports steady practice of CBT tasks and easier access to EMDR-informed processing without extra travel.
