Integrative therapeutic approaches for online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-directive space where the client’s own insights and choices guide the work. It emphasizes empathy, active listening and the client’s strengths, and can be helpful for improving self-esteem, relationship challenges and navigating life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces practical exercises to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stress. These techniques can be useful for managing anxiety, stress, compassion fatigue and symptoms of depression by helping people relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings.

Existential Therapy invites exploration of meaning, values and life purpose, supporting people facing grief, midlife questions, or major transitions. It encourages reflection on personal responsibility and authentic choices, often helping clients clarify what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Penelope 'Penny' Davis works collaboratively with each person to identify the methods that best fit their needs, goals and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often blend approaches to match an individual's situation rather than relying on a single technique.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging allow people to engage from different locations and on different schedules. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy lives or times of change while still receiving consistent therapeutic support.
