Client-Centered Therapy and Online Support
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client directs the pace and focus of each session. The therapist offers empathy, active listening, and support to help clients explore feelings and identify their own solutions - an approach that can be helpful for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, and life changes.In addition to this core approach, Laura-Anne brings a coaching-oriented perspective that helps clients clarify goals and develop practical steps toward change. That style is useful for career challenges, coping strategies, and managing transitions where structured goal-setting and encouragement are helpful.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist will work with each client to identify which methods feel most useful based on the client’s needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access care from different locations. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow for continuity when travel or other commitments arise, and enable clients to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them.
