Therapeutic approaches and the benefits of online therapy
Geraldine combines client-centered and psychodynamic approaches to support personal change and healing. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience guides the work - it helps with building self-esteem, improving relationships, and managing anxiety by focusing on personal strengths and choice. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and behaviours - it can be useful for understanding recurring relationship difficulties, attachment or abandonment issues, and deeper emotional wounds.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Geraldine works collaboratively with each person to determine what will be most helpful. She listens to a client's needs, goals, and preferences and adapts her methods so the work feels manageable and relevant. This collaborative stance helps shape sessions that fit the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy with Geraldine is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent, ongoing support from registered professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to fit into a variety of daily routines and life circumstances.
