Approaches that guide online therapy and support
Saleem uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, non-judgemental space where the client's priorities guide the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting people to find their own solutions, which can help with anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life changes.He also draws on psychodynamic therapy to explore patterns in relationships and behaviour that arise from past experiences. This approach helps people gain insight into recurring difficulties and can be useful for understanding attachment, intimacy issues, and long-standing emotional patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Saleem works together with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques and adjusting the focus over time to ensure sessions remain relevant and effective.
Online therapy with Saleem is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and needs. Remote sessions make it easier to access consistent support from home or work and can be scheduled to suit varying routines and time zones.
