How Lana's Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience first and helps build a trusting connection. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters to you and the therapist listens to reflect what you say and what you need. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches skills to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by giving concrete tools to practice.Picking the right approach is part of the work together. Lana will discuss options and try methods that match your goals and preferences, and she adapts as you progress. The process is collaborative so adjustments can be made if something does not feel like a good fit.
The biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your day. It can also let you use written notes or screen-shared worksheets during a session to practice skills. Talk with the therapist about practical arrangements and which way of meeting will work best for your needs.
