Attachment, CBT and Client-Centred Therapy Online

Karin works with approaches that support emotional understanding and practical change. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps people explore connection, trust and recurring relational difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the work, offering empathic listening and acceptance so people can discover their own solutions and build self-trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers concrete strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood and tackle unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Karin approaches this collaboratively - she listens to your concerns, discusses options and tailors the methods to your needs, goals and preferences so the work feels appropriate and manageable.

Online therapy with Karin can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals without needing to travel, and they allow sessions to fit around work, family and other commitments.
