Therapeutic approaches and online support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on offering a compassionate, non-directive environment where the client leads the conversation and is supported to explore feelings and personal values. This approach is helpful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship concerns and coping with life changes. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying goals and practical steps toward change, often useful when clients want short-term, goal-directed work to address stress, anxiety or specific problems.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Registered professionals and therapists work with each person to assess needs, preferences and goals, and then adapt methods to suit the individual. The therapist will discuss options and tailor sessions so the chosen approach supports the client’s priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility by enabling sessions via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, access support from different locations and choose the format that feels most comfortable for focused conversation and ongoing progress.
