She has 3 years of professional experience working with people facing a wide range of concerns, including parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career changes, coping with life transitions, LGBT issues, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses adoption and foster care matters, caregiver stress, communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, multicultural concerns, self-love, and workplace difficulties.

Ohan’s manner is empathic, supportive, and collaborative. She centers the client in the work, helping individuals draw on their own strengths, insight, and creativity to move forward. She uses Client-Centered approaches to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where a client’s values and goals shape the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and patterns that contribute to distress, while Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused strategies support clear goal setting and practical steps toward change. Throughout treatment she aims to empower clients with tools and perspectives they can apply in daily life.

Ohan provides therapy in English and is accepting new clients for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Support

Ohan draws from several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s priorities and values guide the work; it is especially helpful for people seeking empathetic support and clarity about their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and reframing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete tools to manage mood, anxiety, and stress related to relationships, work, or life transitions. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen commitment to change by exploring personal motivations and building confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Ohan works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their goals, preferences, and circumstances. As a licensed professional she adapts strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Ohan can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, limited mobility, or those who prefer remote care. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of support while tailoring session format to what works best for the client.
