How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Curtrice uses cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic ideas in her work. Cognitive-behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to ease anxiety or depression. Humanistic approaches emphasize the person's strengths and values, helping them make choices that feel more authentic. Psychodynamic ideas look at how past experiences influence current feelings and relationships, which can help with understanding long-standing patterns.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. She will work with a client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That collaboration includes checking progress and adjusting the plan as needed so sessions stay relevant and practical.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed. It can also help when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a lower-bandwidth option. Ask about format choices when you schedule so sessions match your needs and routine.
