Approaches That Guide Online Therapeutic Work
Jo integrates a few key approaches to guide online sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current emotions and behaviours - it can be helpful for people struggling with connection, abandonment fears, or recurring relational difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the individual's experience, with the therapist offering empathy and non-judgemental presence so clients can find their own solutions and build self-understanding. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used to identify and work with core emotions that underlie relationship patterns, helping people shift how they respond to themselves and others.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Jo works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore which methods feel most useful and adapt the work as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to access support from different locations, and to continue work even when in-person meetings are difficult. Registered professionals can tailor these formats to suit a client's communication style and practical circumstances.
