Therapeutic approaches and online support
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and emotional bonds in adult life. It helps clients understand patterns around abandonment, trust, and intimacy so they can form healthier connections and respond differently in relationships.Client-Centered Therapy emphasises a collaborative, non-directive relationship in which the therapist offers empathy and acceptance while the client leads the pace and direction of change. This approach supports people working through identity, self-esteem, and life-purpose questions by validating experience and encouraging self-discovery.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns that contribute to anxiety, low mood, or stress. It offers practical strategies for managing symptoms and building coping skills that can be used in everyday situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Peter works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often blend approaches, and Peter tailors recommendations so each person receives an approach that feels purposeful and manageable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or travel. These options increase accessibility for international clients and for people who prefer to receive support from home. The format allows consistent continuity of care and lets clients continue progress even when life circumstances change.
