Solution-Focused Care Delivered Online
Velma works primarily with solution-focused therapy, a brief, goal-oriented approach that helps clients identify practical steps and small changes to move toward their aims. This method concentrates on current strengths and future possibilities rather than dwelling on past problems, and it is well suited to addressing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and everyday challenges.
Alongside solution-focused techniques she uses goal-focused, strengths-based methods to help clients notice what is already working and to build on those resources. These approaches tend to be collaborative and action-oriented, offering tools that clients can apply between sessions to see steady progress.
Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the work she does with each person - Velma will discuss options, listen to a client’s priorities, and tailor the process so that goals, pace, and techniques fit their needs. Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent support while balancing life commitments. This flexibility helps clients connect in ways that suit their schedule and personal circumstances, making therapy more accessible and easier to maintain over time.
