Approaches and how online therapy can fit your life
Dr. Whitt draws on psychodynamic perspectives to help people understand how past relationships shape current behavior. That approach looks for patterns rooted in earlier experiences and helps clients see how those patterns affect today's choices and relationships.She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and test simpler ways of thinking. Those techniques focus on practical exercises and small behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust plans as progress is made.
If you're considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Many people choose online work because it can fit a busy schedule, cut travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or let someone avoid being on camera if they prefer audio only. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to confirm the practical arrangements that will best fit your life and needs.
