Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings of safety and connection. It can help people who struggle with fears of abandonment, attachment issues, or difficulty trusting others by exploring relationship patterns and building more secure ways of relating.

Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering a nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead. This approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal growth and can be helpful for people facing stress, anxiety, or decisions about life changes.

Holly works collaboratively with clients to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She sees finding the right therapeutic fit as part of the work itself and will help clients identify techniques and perspectives that feel most useful.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to access regular support while balancing work, family, and health commitments. These options offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to engage in therapy in the setting that feels most comfortable for them, while working with registered professionals and therapists who can tailor sessions to each person’s situation.
