Approaches used online and how they help
Colin commonly integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques into his online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client’s experience, creating space for personal insight and self-directed change; it is often helpful for relationship issues, grief, and low self-esteem. CBT offers structured ways to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, and some forms of addiction. Mindfulness-based methods teach present-moment awareness and coping tools that can reduce reactivity and support sleep, stress management, and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Colin works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to identify which methods suit an individual’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress is made. This helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make therapy more accessible for clients who live abroad, have mobility constraints, or need to fit sessions around work and family commitments, while still enabling consistent, focused therapeutic work with a qualified therapist.
