Integrative and CBT approaches for online therapy
Mary Lavelle blends integrative counselling with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to offer practical and flexible support online. Integrative counselling involves drawing on multiple therapeutic methods to suit the individual - it focuses on understanding a person’s history, values and relationships to promote meaningful change and emotional resilience. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, taught through her postgraduate diploma, is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, insomnia and stress-related difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Mary works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She and other registered professionals can adapt techniques over time so the work remains relevant and practical for the client.
Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to connect with a therapist from different locations. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, allow for ongoing support between sessions in some formats, and make it possible for people living abroad to access therapy from a registered professional in the United Kingdom.
