Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Kelly Porch commonly uses client-centered and trauma-focused approaches alongside hypnotherapy, each offering different paths to change. Client-centered therapy prioritises the client’s own perspective and pace - the therapist listens deeply and helps people explore feelings, values, and choices to improve self-understanding and strengthen coping with stress or relationship challenges. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on helping people process and reduce the ongoing impact of traumatic experiences, offering structured ways to build resilience and regain a sense of safety in daily life. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to access thoughts and patterns that can support behaviour change, reduce anxiety, and improve confidence.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kelly works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as progress is made. Registered professionals will adjust techniques over time to find the most helpful combination for each client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, through live chat, or via text-based messaging - making it easier to fit counselling into busy or complex lives. These options increase access to consistent support and allow people to engage in therapy from locations that work for them.
