Approaches that guide online care

Sarah Gregg draws on several therapeutic approaches to tailor online work to each person's needs. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences, helping people reduce their symptoms and regain a sense of safety and control. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships and emotional bonds, useful for those dealing with attachment issues, relationship strain, or difficulties forming secure connections. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the individual's own goals and resources, with the therapist offering empathy and support to foster insight, self-esteem, and motivation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Sarah works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best given their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods as therapy progresses to align with what is most helpful for the client.

Online sessions can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to access care from home or on the go. These formats allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy schedules, and offer multiple ways to communicate based on comfort and convenience.
