She brings eight years of experience working with people affected by cancer, offering steady support to navigate the emotional impact that can accompany illness and its aftermath. Alongside this specialist focus, she works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low motivation, self-esteem and confidence difficulties, relationship challenges, and depression.

Alanna works collaboratively with clients to build an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. Her approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and pacing the work to each person’s needs so that goals feel achievable.

Recognizing that seeking help often takes courage, she aims to guide and support people as they take early steps toward greater wellbeing and more fulfilling relationships and life choices.

Client-Centered and CBT Support Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and strengths. In this approach the therapist offers empathic listening and acceptance, helping people explore feelings and values at their own pace - it is often used for issues such as self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, and adapting to life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and work toward practical changes in thinking and behavior. CBT tends to be goal-oriented and can be helpful for managing anxiety, low mood, stress, and some addictive patterns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Alanna works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adapt the approach over time to suit the client.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, or treatment commitments and allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support even when meeting in person is difficult.
