Evidence-based techniques for online therapeutic support

Deborah offers evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted for remote work. One common approach she uses is a structured, goal-focused method that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies to change behaviours - this approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and motivation difficulties. Another strand of her work focuses on grief integration and meaning-making, supporting people to process loss and to find ways to adjust to life after bereavement. She also draws on skills-based coping work, teaching concrete tools for managing stress, improving sleep and reducing the impact of difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Deborah works collaboratively with each person to explore which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made so that the work remains relevant and achievable.

Online therapy with Deborah can take place by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. Remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible, while allowing registered professionals and therapists to provide consistent, focused support.
