Trauma-Informed and Attachment-Focused Online Care
Alana draws on trauma-informed therapies that focus on understanding how past experiences affect current thinking, emotions, and relationships. These approaches help people process difficult events and reduce the impact of trauma-related difficulties on everyday life. She also uses mindfulness practices to build present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing stress and strong emotions, which can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and perfectionism.Attachment-informed work explores patterns in close relationships and how early relational experiences shape expectations and behaviours in adult connections. This can support people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, or communication and commitment challenges. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and she collaborates with each person to identify techniques that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, education, travel, or caring responsibilities and enable ongoing access to registered professionals regardless of location.
