How attachment work and skills translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting. In online sessions this means talking through relationship patterns and identifying moments where different responses might help, useful for anxiety or ongoing conflict.

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience at the center of sessions. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them find their own solutions. This approach supports people who want a respectful, nonjudgmental space to make sense of hard emotions.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. Gia will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their needs and goals, and she may blend approaches over time. That process includes checking in about what feels helpful and changing the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical needs while keeping continuity of care.
