Evidence-based approaches and the convenience of online therapy
Elaine works as an integrative practitioner, combining techniques from evidence-based therapeutic approaches to suit each person. This integrative way means she draws on a range of established methods and adapts them to the client’s needs, preferences, and goals, rather than applying a fixed model.She also focuses on trauma-related work, using approaches designed to help people process experiences that left them feeling helpless, overwhelmed, or persistently distressed. This work aims to reduce the ongoing impact of those experiences and to build coping skills for daily life. Elaine additionally supports people dealing with bereavement and loss by using targeted, evidence-informed strategies to help process grief and restore functioning.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Elaine treats this as a collaborative conversation. Together the client and therapist explore options, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as progress and preferences emerge.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it possible to access registered professionals from home or wherever is convenient. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, make therapy more accessible across distances, and allow clients to choose the mode of contact that feels most comfortable for their situation.
