Therapeutic approaches and what online therapy can offer
Client-centered therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering space to be heard and helping individuals explore their feelings and choices at their own pace. This approach supports issues such as self-doubt, relationship difficulties, and identity concerns by focusing on understanding and empathy.Mindfulness therapy teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations with less judgement, which can help reduce reactivity to stress, manage anxiety, and support emotional regulation. Trauma-focused therapy works directly with the impact of traumatic events, providing structured ways to process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Fiona collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and responsive to progress.
Online therapy via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging increases flexibility for people juggling work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or other comfortable settings, allow for varied communication styles, and can help maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change. Registered professionals and therapists can use these formats to deliver structured, supportive, and client-focused work tailored to individual circumstances.
