If you prefer online therapy, confirm current session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online options can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins that fit a work break. They can also be chosen for lower bandwidth needs or to avoid being on camera when that helps someone engage more comfortably.
