Integrative approaches for online therapy
David Francis frequently draws on client-centred therapy, attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural therapy to guide online work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening with empathy and supporting a person’s own capacity for insight and growth - it is useful for building self-esteem, confidence and emotional clarity. Attachment-based therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how they affect current connections and trust; it can be helpful for relationship difficulties, abandonment or attachment issues. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers practical techniques to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. David works collaboratively with each person - discussing goals, preferences and responses to different techniques - to determine the best fit and adjust the approach as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging gives flexibility to fit sessions around work, family and daily life. These options make it easier for people to access support from registered professionals and therapists without the need to travel, and they allow therapy to continue in a way that suits each person’s schedule and comfort.
