Evidence-based techniques for online therapeutic support

Anthony Roots uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that translate well to remote work. Cognitive and behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then developing practical strategies and skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, stress, and mood difficulties. These approaches are often action-oriented and help people make observable changes in thinking and behavior.

Trauma-informed approaches emphasize understanding how past distress or abuse can affect present functioning. This style of work moves at a pace that feels manageable for the person, building safety and grounding strategies while addressing the long-term effects of trauma and related issues such as panic or post-traumatic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Anthony collaborates with each person to explore which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as therapy progresses to ensure the best fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls and phone sessions allow for face-to-face connection, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options that fit busy schedules or different communication styles. These formats make it easier to arrange consistent sessions and to continue work during life transitions or when in-person appointments are difficult.
