How her approaches translate to online work
Toya often draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in session. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities, helping them talk through what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical exercises to change patterns that keep someone stuck.She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to build motivation and create small, concrete steps. These methods work together so the therapist and client can try different ways of working and choose what fits best. Finding the right mix is part of the process and she collaborates with each person to decide what feels most useful.
