Minne What makes you enjoy working with seniors? There's something uniquely rewarding about witnessing someone integrate decades of life experience as they work through current challenges or reflect on their journey. Why do you think online therapy is effective for seniors?

Online therapy eliminates the barrier of having to travel to an office, and allows people to feel more at ease in their own familiar environment rather than in a clinical setting. This means they can access consistent care without the physical strain or logistical complications that might otherwise prevent them from seeking help. How do you approach therapy sessions?

My personal style is warm, friendly and relatable. My therapeutic approach is evidence-based and integrative, drawing primarily from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance-based interventions, and narrative therapy, while remaining flexible to meet each client's unique needs and preferences. What is your advice to someone who is starting therapy for the first time?

Therapy is a process, not a quick fix. While some people experience relief after just a few sessions, lasting change typically takes time. Be patient with yourself and the process.

Some sessions might feel more productive than others, and that's normal. You're in control. You can set the pace, choose what to discuss, and ask questions about the process at any time.

Good therapists will regularly check in about how therapy is going and adjust their approach based on your feedback.
