Therapeutic approaches tailored for online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and supporting the client to explore their own goals and solutions; it is useful for people working through stress, low self-esteem or life changes. Existential Therapy invites exploration of meaning, values and personal responsibility, helping clients facing uncertainty, loss or questions about life purpose. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, which can be especially relevant for addiction and behaviour change work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anna works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences, and she adjusts the work as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy with Anna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and access across locations. These options support continuity of care during life transitions and make it easier for clients to engage with therapy in ways that suit their routines and commitments.
