Approaches that guide online therapy
Katie Rennison commonly draws on client-centred work, trauma-focused methods, and mindfulness techniques in her practice. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and providing a non-judgmental, empathic environment so the individual can explore their own thoughts and feelings and find their own solutions; it is helpful for relationship issues, low self-esteem, and navigating life changes. Trauma-focused therapy attends directly to the effects of traumatic experiences and supports individuals to process and reduce the ongoing impact of those events, which can assist with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and struggles rooted in past harm. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of difficult thoughts and sensations, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and improving sleep or emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Katie works collaboratively to determine what fits best. She listens to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts methods over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives or those who are not local to the therapist. Sessions can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing appointments to be scheduled around work, caregiving, or other commitments and making it easier for people to access registered professionals and therapists from different locations.
