Attachment, Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Care

Francis integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet different needs. Attachment-based therapy explores patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence current emotions and connections - this can be useful for relationship difficulties, attachment issues and feelings of abandonment. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental stance where the therapist offers empathic understanding and support to help clients clarify values and make choices; it is helpful for people facing life changes, low self-esteem or caregiver stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms such as anxiety, depression, sleeping problems and some addiction-related patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Francis works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences and presenting concerns, adapting techniques as therapy progresses. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what is most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy with Francis is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, family and geographic constraints, allowing registered professionals to support clients in different locations and life circumstances while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship.
