Therapeutic approaches for online support

Sonia draws on client-centered therapy and motivational interviewing to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship and helps people explore feelings and values at their own pace - it is well suited to addressing anxiety, grief, family tensions, and issues of self-esteem. Motivational interviewing focuses on helping people find their own motivation for change, offering supportive questioning and reflection to clarify goals and resolve uncertainty - it can be useful for parenting changes, life transitions, and coping with ongoing stress.

Sonia approaches treatment collaboratively, acknowledging that finding the right therapeutic fit is part of the process. She works with clients to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful, combining understanding with practical strategies tailored to each person’s needs and preferences.

Online therapy with Sonia uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexible access to support. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, or other commitments, maintain continuity when circumstances change, and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
