Approaches in online therapy and how they help
Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, emphasising empathy, active listening, and respect for each person's perspective. It helps people explore their feelings, build self-esteem, and make choices that align with their values. Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, responsibility, and life direction, supporting clients who are wrestling with purpose, transitions, or deeper anxieties about their choices. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns, early relationships, and unconscious influences to help people understand how past experiences shape present reactions, which can be useful for attachment issues and long-standing emotional difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Asta works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to identify methods that best match a person's needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexible access to support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow people to fit therapy around work, family, and daily life, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change. For many, the convenience and consistency of online sessions make it easier to engage in regular, focused therapeutic work.
