Integrating therapeutic approaches for online care

Andrew Ellis draws on a blend of evidence-informed approaches tailored to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility - it is often used to manage anxiety, stress and ongoing life challenges by focusing on what matters most and taking committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works by identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it a practical option for issues like anxiety, low mood and problems with coping strategies. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening and collaborative understanding, providing a respectful environment where people can explore feelings and make their own choices about change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided together. Andrew will work collaboratively with each person to identify suitable methods based on their goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in practice.

Online sessions using video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These formats allow registered professionals to deliver consistent, focused support while adapting the pace and communication style to the client’s comfort and needs.
