Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Therapy
Nicola integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing a nonjudgmental, empathic space where the person’s experience guides the work - this approach helps when someone needs emotional understanding, acceptance, and support to explore personal values and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing practical strategies to change thoughts and behaviours - it is often effective for managing anxiety, stress, low mood, and relationship challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Nicola works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She listens to priorities and adapts methods so therapy remains relevant and useful rather than following a fixed formula.
Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. These formats make it easier to access regular appointments, maintain continuity of care, and try different ways of working that suit individual routines and comfort levels.
