Background and approach
She approaches work with a practical mindset. She helps clients identify strengths, set clear goals, and take small steps that build momentum. She believes people know their story best and uses that perspective to shape sessions.
In sessions she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events are affecting current life. These methods are used flexibly based on what a person needs.
Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Fees vary with location and therapist availability and operate through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, users select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to therapist availability.
Dr. Lluveras emphasizes collaboration and steady progress tailored to each person’s priorities.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot patterns in thoughts and behaviors and then try specific changes to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what is working now and builds on small, achievable goals to create forward momentum. It can be useful when someone wants practical changes in a shorter time frame.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options provide flexibility for scheduling and let people use the format that feels most comfortable. Online formats can support regular follow-up, skill practice between sessions, and steady progress while working around daily responsibilities.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
Trauma-Focused Therapy
Work that takes difficult past experience into account and moves at a pace you set, with attention to feeling steady before anything else. Being in your own space can make that easier for some people.
