Background and approach

Client-centered work focuses on the person’s goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. With ten years of experience, Suandria draws on tools from relationship models such as the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy when relationship repair is needed.

She also leans on motivational interviewing to help people find the energy for change. These methods are mixed to suit each person rather than applied in the same way for everyone. Suandria practices in Georgia and holds the LPC credential.

She describes her work as collaborative and strengths-based, helping people name what matters and take manageable steps toward it. Her style aims to be warm, direct, and practical. People who reach out can expect a clear focus on goals and small strategies to use between sessions.

Sessions can cover short-term coping skills or longer work on patterns that keep causing pain. The pace is set by the person seeking help.

Approaches that translate to online work

Somatic-informed work pays attention to how emotions show up in the body. Online sessions can include guided body awareness and simple grounding practices to help reduce tension and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and perspective, letting the therapist follow the client’s lead and build on their strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete skills to change thinking patterns and behaviors, which can be practised and reinforced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort with online formats. That means adjusting pacing, exercises, and tools so work feels manageable and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people work face to face from home. Phone sessions provide an audio-only option when video isn’t possible. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and written exercises that can fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and apply skills in daily life.
