Integrative Approaches and Online Therapeutic Support
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust. It helps people who struggle with attachment issues, relationship difficulties and fears of intimacy by exploring relational histories and building more secure ways of relating.Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, offering empathic listening and unconditional positive regard. This approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem and personal growth by giving space for clients to lead the conversation and find their own solutions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, panic, mood difficulties and stress, helping clients develop coping skills and clearer ways of thinking.
