Approaches and online options for practical progress

Dr. Monique Holsey-Hyman integrates Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy into her practice. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, person-centered method that helps people explore their own motivations for change and build commitment to specific goals; it is often helpful for overcoming ambivalence and increasing readiness to take action. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes strengths and small, practical steps toward desired outcomes, focusing on what is already working and how to do more of it; it can be useful for addressing relationship tensions, stress, and day-to-day challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Dr. Holsey-Hyman works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors conversations and plans collaboratively so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from home or while traveling. These formats offer flexibility in pacing and communication style, allowing therapists and clients to choose the mode that best supports their work together.
