How her approaches translate to online therapy
Connie commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing in her work. Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative way to talk through ambivalence and strengthen a person’s own reasons for change, which can be useful for addictions or lifestyle shifts.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Connie works with clients to figure out which methods match their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans as progress is made so the work stays practical and relevant to daily life.
