Background and approach

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and existential ideas to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and find meaning in difficult situations. Sessions are conversational and aimed at building skills that can be used outside of appointments. Dr.

Fields is a psychologist licensed in Colorado and North Carolina with three years of experience. She has supported people coping with depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting stress, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and changes in career or life stage. Her background includes work with varied concerns such as body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and intimacy-related issues.

Her style is warm, reflective, and interactive. People can expect respectful listening, practical coping strategies, and attention to both feelings and bodily experience. She prefers to tailor methods to what the person finds most helpful rather than following a single plan.

Outside of practice she enjoys spending time outdoors and with family. Her personal interests inform a down-to-earth style in sessions and a focus on everyday changes that add up over time.

How somatic and talk therapies work online

Somatic work helps people notice how emotions show up in the body, such as tightness, breath changes, or restlessness, and then learn gentle ways to release or work with that tension. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying practical experiments to change how those thoughts affect mood and behavior. Existential therapy looks at meaning, values, and life choices to help people find direction during transitions or uncertainty.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor sessions in a collaborative way. That means ideas may shift over time as needs and progress evolve.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make participation easier around busy schedules. These options allow for flexible check-ins, skill practice between meetings, and access when traveling or caring for others. The variety of formats helps people try different ways of engaging to see what supports their goals best.
