Client-Centered Therapy Delivered Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s own experience, offering a supportive, non-directive space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to explore feelings, values and goals. This approach is helpful for people dealing with anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties and issues around identity or self-worth because it emphasises empathy, acceptance and personal understanding.

Within this collaborative framework the therapist listens closely and reflects what matters most to the client, helping to clarify choices and build confidence. That collaborative stance can be particularly useful when addressing addictions, communication problems or challenges arising from family and blended family dynamics, as it supports clients to discover what change looks like for them.

Registered professionals and therapists can offer these methods effectively through online formats. Alison offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility around work, family and geographical constraints. Online therapy makes it easier to access consistent support, fit appointments around daily life and maintain continuity of care while working with the therapist to find the approach that best matches the client’s needs and preferences.
