Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Jennifer integrates several evidence-informed approaches to support clients remotely. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps people understand attachment needs and improve connection in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, non-directive stance in which the therapist offers empathy and acceptance while clients explore their values, choices and sense of self. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotional patterns in couples and individuals to strengthen bonds and reduce distress by helping people access and reprocess core emotions.Determining the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer works with clients to identify goals, preferences and practical needs, then tailors a blend of techniques to suit the individual - adjusting methods as therapy progresses to find the best fit.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, remote locations and international clients. These formats allow ongoing therapeutic work without the need to travel, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
