Online therapeutic approaches and what they offer
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, and focuses on identifying values and taking committed steps toward a more meaningful life - it is often helpful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and can support work on intimacy, abandonment or communication difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering an empathic, non-directive space where people can explore feelings and build self-understanding and self-esteem.
Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Kim will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the way she works as the therapeutic relationship develops.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access support from home or while travelling, maintain continuity of care, and choose the style of communication that feels most manageable for the individual. Registered professionals and therapists can adapt these approaches to deliver compassionate, focused care across these remote formats.
