Client-centered approaches and accessible online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, emphasising empathic listening and respect for each individual's perspective. The therapist offers a non-directive, supportive stance that helps people explore feelings, clarify values, and set their own goals - an approach well suited to relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, and major life transitions.

The right therapeutic approach is often discovered together. Steven aims to work collaboratively with each client and to adapt the way he works based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, taking time to find the pace and methods that feel most constructive.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible. For many people, remote sessions reduce travel time, allow for more scheduling options, and make it simpler to access registered professionals from where they are.
