Working with CBT and EFT in Online Sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In practice this involves setting clear goals, trying practical exercises, and developing skills to manage stress, anxiety and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people explore and understand emotional patterns in relationships and within themselves, fostering deeper emotional awareness and stronger connections where relationships or attachment issues are central.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Roy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals and personal preferences, and may blend techniques from different approaches as appropriate. This collaborative process ensures therapy is shaped around the client rather than a single fixed model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and support can continue via live chat or text-based messaging when that suits a client's schedule. These options make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals while balancing work, family and other commitments, and they help maintain continuity of care even when circumstances change.
