About Justine
She brings ten years of experience working in individual and group settings. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental so people can feel safe sharing hard things. Sessions focus on practical steps like setting goals and practicing coping skills that can be used between appointments.
Justine tailors her approach to each person's needs. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, acceptance-based work, and solution-focused methods as appropriate. The emphasis is on what helps a person move forward rather than on labels.
She often supports people managing depression, bipolar symptoms, addiction recovery, attention challenges, caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and relationship or parenting stresses. She also addresses concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, body image, and grief.
Justine believes counseling is a process that takes time and moves at the client's pace. She encourages clients to practice new skills between sessions so changes can take root in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Justine often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values, which can be useful for chronic stress, grief, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and managing mood symptoms.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities. DBT techniques teach practical skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication in relationships. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences.
If you're considering online therapy, check the session format options before booking to confirm what is currently offered. Many people find remote work helps fit counseling into busy schedules, makes it easier to attend weekly check-ins, or allows shorter follow-up conversations when needed. The focus remains on learning skills, setting goals, and applying tools in day-to-day life, whether sessions are held remotely or arranged another way.
