How Vijay's therapeutic approaches work online
Vijay draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early and current relationships shape emotions and behaviour. This approach helps people understand patterns around closeness, trust, and separation, and supports work on improving connection and emotional regulation.He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which places the client at the core of the process. In this approach the therapist follows the client’s pace, offering empathic listening and acceptance so clients can discover their own solutions and build confidence in their choices.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Vijay works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts sessions as understanding and priorities evolve. Registered professionals aim to tailor the work so it feels meaningful and manageable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles and energy levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from wherever the client is, reduce travel time, and allow therapy to fit into busy or changing routines.
