Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to clarify what matters most to them and to develop practical steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It often helps with anxiety, stress, and navigating big life changes by focusing on action that aligns with personal goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress and then developing strategies to shift those patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and building practical coping skills for everyday challenges.
Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach supports self-exploration, self-acceptance, and personal growth and can be especially helpful for issues around self-esteem and relationship patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Anna works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to connect from different locations, and to choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable at any given time. Registered professionals can adapt their techniques effectively across these formats to support meaningful change.
