Client-Centered Approaches for Flexible Online Support
Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering an empathetic, non-judgmental space where the individual leads the conversation. This approach is particularly useful for people navigating grief, life changes, low mood, and relationship or caregiving stresses because it prioritizes personal goals and pacing.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, used selectively, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms of anxiety, panic, and low mood. Mindfulness techniques help people build present-moment awareness and grounding skills, which can reduce reactivity to stress and support coping with chronic pain or illness.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Victoria collaborates with clients to explore what fits best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as the work evolves to ensure a good match.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - clients can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit their schedules and circumstances. Working remotely with registered professionals makes it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions around daily life, and access support from familiar surroundings.
