Approaches for effective online therapeutic work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them, and take practical steps toward a more meaningful life. It can be helpful for stress, anxiety, low mood and difficulties adjusting to change.
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting and empathetic therapeutic relationship that supports a person to explore their experience and find their own solutions. This humanistic approach is often useful for relationship issues, identity concerns and coping with life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works by identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and developing practical strategies to change them. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and sleep or stress-related problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. James works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with James is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit sessions around work, family and other commitments. These options make it easier for people in different locations to access registered professionals and to continue therapy when schedules or circumstances change.
