Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Althiea Beckford draws on established therapeutic approaches to guide online work in ways that are clear and practical. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and close relationships shape patterns of connection and trust; it can be helpful for people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, relationship difficulties, or recurring interpersonal stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own goals and insights lead the pace of change; this approach supports self-esteem, life transitions, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete strategies for anxiety, depression, and coping with current challenges.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Althiea works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time so the work remains relevant and practical.

Online sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or geographical distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each stage of therapy.
