Therapeutic approaches and online support



Carole uses client-centered therapy to place the client at the heart of the process - this approach focuses on listening, empathy and helping people explore their own values and goals, which can be especially helpful for issues of self-esteem, life purpose and relationship concerns.

She also integrates cognitive behavioural therapy, a practical method that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and develop alternative ways of coping; CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and stress-related difficulties.

Motivational interviewing is part of her toolkit as well, offering a collaborative, non-confrontational way to explore ambivalence and build motivation for change, which can be useful for problems like self-harm, addictive behaviours or getting through major life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Carole will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt the work as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Carole is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexible options to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible for registered professionals and therapists to provide consistent, accessible support even when in-person meetings are not possible, helping people maintain continuity of care and practical strategies between sessions.
