Online support
How different approaches are used in online sessions
Celina often uses the Gottman Method to focus on improving communication and turning repetitive conflicts into clearer conversations. That approach is useful when people want practical ways to handle arguments and rebuild connection.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions begin by listening closely and following the client’s pace. This approach helps people feel heard while they sort out priorities and next steps. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she brings; it supports people who feel stuck and need help finding internal reasons to change.
Choosing the right method is a team effort. During the first sessions she will talk with clients about goals and preferences and suggest which approaches might fit best. She adapts methods over time so the work matches each person’s needs and life situation.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for these approaches. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for communication practice. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions, keep momentum, and get brief support on busy days. These formats make it possible to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while using the methods that best support change and understanding.
