Integrative approaches for online therapy and support
CBT, or cognitive behavioural therapy, is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress-related concerns and offers practical tools for managing symptoms and building coping skills.Person centred work focuses on creating a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the client is supported to explore feelings and discover personal solutions. This approach is particularly helpful for issues of self-esteem, identity and relationship difficulties. Mindfulness techniques are also used to help clients develop present-moment awareness, reduce reactivity and build tolerance for difficult emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dana collaborates with each person to identify which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the mix of techniques as therapy progresses. Registered professionals and therapists tailor plans to the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging offers greater flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits or who live at a distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access regular, consistent support from a qualified professional.
