Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Support
Geraldine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand and change patterns that contribute to distress. She often employs cognitive and behavioural strategies that explore how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact, helping clients develop practical skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful habits. For people affected by trauma and abuse, Geraldine applies trauma-informed methods that prioritise emotional regulation and gradual processing, supporting recovery at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the journey. Geraldine works collaboratively with clients to identify which techniques fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adapts her approach as therapy progresses so treatments remain relevant and effective.

These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow people to engage in therapy from environments that feel convenient and comfortable, while still receiving focused, evidence-based care from a trained therapist.
