Integrative approaches and online therapy

Chris works with a blend of established methods to suit different needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgemental space where the client’s experience guides the conversation - it is helpful for building self-awareness, confidence, and emotional resilience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact and offers practical tools to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and relationships shape current feelings and responses, which can help with deeper emotional issues and recurring relational patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Chris will work with each person to identify goals, try different techniques as needed, and agree on what feels most effective and comfortable. The emphasis is on tailoring the work to the client rather than applying a single fixed model.

Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or other commitments. These options make it easier to fit regular therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are not possible, while allowing registered professionals to deliver focused, goal-oriented support.
