Practical Approaches for Online Therapeutic Support
Jonathan draws on client-centered therapy to create a listening-focused environment where the person’s own goals and experiences guide the work - this approach helps when someone needs empathetic support and a space to make sense of feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping strategies, which can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related difficulties. Solution-Focused Therapy complements these methods by concentrating on strengths and small, achievable steps toward the changes a person wants to see.Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may combine elements from different approaches to create a tailored plan that feels manageable and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and geographic constraints. These options support consistent access to registered professionals and allow people to choose the format that feels most comfortable and practical for them.
