Approaches That Guide Online Therapeutic Support
Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connection styles and emotional responses; it is helpful for people working with abandonment, attachment wounds, trust and intimacy challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, offering practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage low mood and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle self-compassion, which can reduce rumination and support coping with stress, chronic pain or difficult emotions.
Carmen approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right method is part of the therapeutic journey. She works with clients to identify goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and adapts techniques from different approaches to suit each person’s needs. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy fits the client rather than expecting the client to fit a single model.
Online therapy with Carmen is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for busy schedules, people living abroad and those who prefer remote contact. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from a registered professional despite distance, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for the client.
