Integrating therapeutic approaches for effective online care



Caroline draws on several well-established approaches to tailor online therapy to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in adult relationships; it can help people understand intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and recurring relationship patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and the client's own pace of change, offering a non-directive space to explore self-esteem, depression, and life transitions while the therapist reflects and supports the client's goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical techniques to reduce symptoms of anxiety, stress, low mood, and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Caroline collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as therapy unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access therapy from home or while traveling, and allow flexibility around work and family commitments. These options offer different ways to connect so clients can choose the format that feels most comfortable and practical for their circumstances, while still working with a registered professional toward meaningful change.
