Approaches Barbara Uses and How Online Therapy Works

Barbara Harrison draws on client-centered therapy, Imago relationship therapy, and mindfulness therapy in her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s experience guides the pace and direction of work - it is useful for issues like self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional processing. Imago relationship therapy helps couples explore patterns of connection and communication, aiming to improve empathy and repair in intimate relationships. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical techniques to manage stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, and emotional reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Barbara works collaboratively with each person or couple to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines listening, practical tools, and coaching elements to shape a plan that feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives. These options allow clients to access registered professionals from different locations and to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them, supporting continuity of care across everyday routines and life changes.
