Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Vanessa draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and systemic approaches in her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the individual’s own goals and experiences guide the work; it is useful for building self-understanding and confidence. CBT involves identifying and gently challenging unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and can be helpful for difficulties such as anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems. Systemic therapy looks at relationship patterns and the wider context around a person, which can be particularly helpful for family, couple, and communication issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Vanessa works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her approach over time in partnership with the client. This collaborative way of working helps ensure therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexible options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access support from different locations within the United Kingdom, and maintain continuity of care. Registered professionals and therapists can use these methods to offer consistent, focused support that aligns with a client’s daily life and commitments.
