Approaches for Online Support and Personal Growth

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgemental environment where the client leads the pace of change. This approach helps people build self-understanding, improve self-esteem, and navigate life transitions by emphasising empathy and the client’s own resources.

Psychodynamic Therapy explores patterns in relationships and inner life that can influence current feelings and behaviour. It is helpful for those who want to understand recurring difficulties, such as relationship struggles or patterns that affect wellbeing, by looking at underlying emotional themes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Karen Young works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the work as progress and priorities evolve. Clients are invited to shape the focus of therapy so that sessions remain relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people access support - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or connect from another location. For many, this adaptability helps maintain continuity of care and supports consistent progress with a registered professional.
