Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Scott draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based work alongside client-centred principles to create a flexible online practice. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them - it focuses on identifying values and taking meaningful actions, and it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses - it can help with relationship difficulties, family issues, and feelings of disconnection. Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work by offering non-judgemental listening and support so clients can explore their own goals and build self-understanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and Scott works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts strategies over time so therapy remains relevant as circumstances change.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health needs. These formats make it easier to access regular support without travelling and allow therapists and registered professionals to work together with clients in ways that suit different communication styles and practical constraints.
