Therapeutic approaches and online care
Sophie commonly integrates client-centred practice, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based work into her online sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on providing a supportive, non-judgemental space where people can explore their thoughts and feelings and build self-awareness and confidence - it is helpful for self-esteem, identity and many everyday struggles. ACT encourages people to clarify their values and practice committed actions toward what matters to them while learning ways to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings - this approach can be useful for anxiety, avoidance and coping with life changes. Attachment-based therapy explores patterns formed in close relationships and how they influence current connections and emotional responses - it can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and family of origin issues.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process and Sophie works collaboratively to identify what fits best for each client’s needs, goals and preferences. She tailors methods over time so the work remains relevant and practical.
Online therapy with Sophie is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit different schedules and life commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, to access support from different locations and to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
