Therapeutic approaches and online care

Marc (Mac) McCormack draws on a small set of complementary approaches to match the work to each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour and developing practical skills to manage symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, stress and difficulties with sleep or eating. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-informed method often used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact, helping people who have experienced trauma or distressing events. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support while helping clients explore their own values and solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marc works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods feel appropriate, adapting techniques based on the client’s goals, preferences and response to therapy. This shared decision making helps ensure the work is tailored and meaningful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit around work, family and geographical constraints. These formats make it easier for people to access regular support, maintain momentum between sessions and choose the communication style that suits them best.
