Client-Centered Care and Online Access



Patience Parker practices Client-Centered Therapy, an approach that prioritises the client’s own experience and perspective. In this model the therapist offers acceptance, empathy, and attentive listening to help clients explore their feelings and make sense of difficulties. This approach is often helpful for people working through issues such as low self-worth, relationship concerns, grief, and the stresses of daily life.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Patience collaborates with clients to identify what feels most useful, adapting the way she works to match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Clients take an active role in shaping their sessions so the process fits their pace and priorities.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from home or while travelling, and they support ongoing contact and continuity of care with registered professionals and therapists even when in-person meetings are not possible.
