Remote sessions and therapeutic style



Ellen uses a blend of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness practices in online sessions. Client-centered therapy provides a collaborative framework in which the person s experience and goals guide the pace and focus of work. Cognitive behavioral techniques are described and practiced to address unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. Mindfulness methods are offered to support present-moment awareness and emotion regulation.

In an online format Ellen aims to adapt these approaches to individual needs, combining reflective conversation with practical exercises and brief skill-building. She frames sessions as a partnership in which the person and clinician decide which tools to try and which topics to prioritize. That collaborative approach helps determine when to use thought-focused CBT strategies, when to explore meaning and values, and when to practice mindfulness techniques.

Remote communication options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats are used to match personal preference and the nature of the work being done together.
