Approaches That Guide Online Therapeutic Work
Jo Reidy often integrates Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and helps people build more secure ways of relating, which can aid in healing from abandonment, relationship difficulties, and attachment issues. CBT is a practical, evidence-informed approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop new skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jo works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy with Jo is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and varied time zones. These options provide flexibility for those who prefer speaking in real time or using written communication, and they help make consistent support more accessible for people managing work, family, or mobility constraints.
