About Holly
Holly has worked in schools, independent practice, and local agencies. That background means she has helped people with trauma and abuse, ADHD, anxiety and depression, autism, relationship struggles, grief, parenting questions, and big life transitions. She approaches each concern with practical steps and attention to the person in front of her.
Her work draws on client-centered methods that focus on the individual's needs. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior ideas and solution-focused tools are included when they fit the client's goals.
Holly keeps things direct and easy to talk about. She aims to create a nonjudging space where a person can talk through worry, frustration, or confusion and build small, achievable changes. Sessions tend to focus on skills, problem solving, and actions that match what each person wants to accomplish.
For people dealing with relationship pain, parenting strain, or feelings of emptiness and loss, she offers steady support and practical strategies. Holly partners with clients to clarify goals and work toward better day-to-day functioning and greater meaning.
How these approaches can work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps build trust, clarify goals, and increase self-direction by centering the client's experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify patterns of thought and behavior that feed anxiety or depression and then try different, practical strategies to change them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest ways of working. That collaborative process lets the plan change as progress is made or new issues arise.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins on a break, talking without a commute, or using a phone call when camera time is difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, DBT, and client-centered work to these situations so skills and problem solving continue between sessions.
