Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Support
Client-Centered Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the process. In this approach Nicola offers attentive, non-directive support so people can explore their feelings and values at their own pace - it is helpful for those facing relationship issues, low self-esteem, grief, or a general sense of emptiness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours. Nicola uses CBT techniques to help clients develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, stress, low mood, and sleeping difficulties by working on skills and small, achievable changes.
Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the journey and Nicola treats this as a collaborative process. She will work with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences and help decide which methods are likely to be most useful, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with a registered professional offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used when that format fits better with someone’s life. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from home or another comfortable setting, while maintaining regular contact with a therapist.
