Sessions focus on small, doable changes rather than abstract theory. She offers information, encouragement, and direct feedback as part of the process.

That mix helps when someone needs both understanding and practical tools to try between sessions. The therapist frames progress as a team effort with the client.

People who reach out can expect clear explanations of why certain strategies are suggested. Dr. Sullivan encourages questions and checks in on what is or isn't working. She aims to make therapy feel like problem-solving rather than a lecture.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns back, and helps people identify what matters most to them. This approach suits people who want a supportive place to make sense of feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses simple exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often includes small steps to practice between sessions, which can reduce anxiety, improve organization, and tackle procrastination. CBT works well when someone wants practical strategies and measurable progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust those methods as needed so the plan fits the person's life.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to connect from different locations. Ask about available session types and scheduling when you begin the intake process.
