Background and approach
Conversations in sessions are aimed at identifying small, manageable changes that add up over time. Her approach centers on listening first. She creates space for people to say what they’re dealing with and what they hope will change.
From there she and the client outline practical steps and short-term goals to track progress. Hollins uses techniques from client-centered work to keep the conversation person-focused. She draws on cognitive behavioral methods to examine unhelpful thinking and build new skills.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools are used to boost motivation and find practical solutions quickly. Sessions are meant to feel collaborative and down-to-earth. Hollins aims to help parents and individuals find routine changes, communication strategies, and coping tools that can fit into busy days.
She encourages small experiments and adjustments that make daily life easier.

Approaches and how online sessions support change
Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding each person's perspective. It helps people clarify what matters most to them and shapes sessions around those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors and builds concrete skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and find their own reasons to try new actions, which can be useful when motivation is low.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match the person’s goals and preferences. Together they check progress and adjust techniques as needs change, so plans stay realistic and useful.
Online sessions offer several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins, homework support, or shorter exchanges between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy parenting schedule and to keep momentum between scheduled appointments.
