How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist offers empathy and acceptance to help people name what matters and choose their next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and stress and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Existential Therapy helps people examine meaning, responsibility, and life choices when facing big transitions or questions about purpose.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Yvette will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. That means trying different tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
