Attachment and Emotion-Focused Care Delivered Online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current ways of connecting and responding to others. It can help people understand and change patterns related to abandonment, attachment issues, and family dynamics by exploring emotional responses and relational history. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering empathic listening and collaboration so individuals can find their own solutions and build self-understanding; it is especially helpful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and coping with stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and shifting emotional responses within close relationships, supporting clearer communication and stronger bonds, which can be useful for couples and family difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Aliyah will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. As a registered professional she integrates these approaches in ways that reflect the client’s priorities and pace.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and for people who live far from local services. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable, and fit sessions into everyday life while working toward personal and relational goals.
