Client-Centered Therapy Online and Practical Support
Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the therapeutic process. It focuses on listening without judgement, reflecting emotions, and supporting clients to find their own solutions. This approach is especially well suited to work with grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties because it encourages personal insight and self-directed change.
Sharon treats the selection of therapeutic approach as a collaborative process. He will work with each client to explore what feels most helpful, adapting sessions and techniques to match individual needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexibility that can make consistent care easier to maintain. Video calls and phone sessions create opportunities for face-to-face dialogue when in-person meetings are not possible, while live chat and text-based messaging provide alternatives for people who prefer written communication or need shorter, more frequent check-ins. These options help clients fit therapy into busy lives and access registered professionals from wherever they are located in the therapist's service area.
