Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Alison commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a supportive, empathetic space where the client leads the pace and topics of conversation. This approach helps people who need understanding and acceptance as they explore personal goals and emotional challenges.
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, changing negative self-beliefs, and developing coping strategies for everyday stressors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Alison treats this as a collaborative process. She will work with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may adapt techniques over time to find the best match.
