Approaches and Online Care with a Licensed Social Worker

Meridith uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on empathy and collaboration and is helpful for building self-esteem and navigating life changes.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often used to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and to develop concrete coping strategies.

When past events are central to a person’s difficulties, Meridith incorporates trauma-focused techniques to safely process those experiences and reduce their ongoing impact. These methods aim to help people regain a sense of control and move toward healing.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Meridith works collaboratively with clients to determine which techniques fit best based on their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring to therapy, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexible ways to work together. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from a convenient location.
