Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-directive environment where the therapist listens, reflects, and helps clients explore their own goals - this approach suits people seeking empathy, clarity, and personal growth when facing issues like relationship problems, life changes, or low self-esteem.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people clarify their reasons for change and resolve ambivalence - it is commonly used for addictions, behaviour change, and when someone feels stuck about next steps.

Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and the ways stress and trauma show up in the body, offering practical techniques to manage physical responses and to support recovery from trauma or chronic stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Alan works collaboratively with clients to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats make regular sessions more accessible, allow continuity of care across locations, and enable therapists and registered professionals to tailor timing and communication style to each client’s life.
