Approaches for Online Therapy and Practical Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the individual leads the pace and direction of sessions. It helps people explore their feelings, strengthen self-awareness and build confidence in making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses structured techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, panic and obsessive concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the effects of traumatic experiences, combining careful stabilisation with techniques to process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing impact.



Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Ian works collaboratively with people to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts the plan as therapy progresses to ensure a good fit.



Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and mobility needs, and allow registered professionals to provide consistent, ongoing support across different formats that suit the individual.
