Approaches for Online Therapy and Practical Support
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns of relating and can help people understand difficulties with closeness, trust and attachment by tracing present struggles back to relational history and building new ways of connection.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, acceptance and the client’s own capacity for growth; it provides a non-directive space where feelings and values can be explored so clients can clarify goals and develop self-awareness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors, offering practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful coping habits through structured strategies and skill-building.
