Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
David draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions while clarifying personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and challenges that involve avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and the client’s own ability to find solutions; this approach supports self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional processing.Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative work. David will explore your needs, goals, and preferences and will help identify which methods fit best, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds to ensure therapy remains relevant and helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions from wherever the client is located and support ongoing work between meetings, allowing therapy to fit into busy or changing lives.
