Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support
Vivienne uses a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in ways that suit each client. One approach focuses on identifying and gently challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, helping people to reframe beliefs that feed anxiety and low mood and to practise new ways of interpreting stressful situations. Another approach emphasises practical skills - such as breathing and grounding tools, behavioural experiments, and problem-solving - to reduce overwhelm and build confidence in daily life. She also offers work that explores relationship patterns and family dynamics to improve communication and emotional connection.
Choosing the most helpful approach is part of the therapeutic process. Vivienne collaborates with clients to understand their needs, goals and preferences, and together they decide which techniques to try and how to adapt them over time. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and achievable.
Online therapy provides flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter conversations or ongoing check-ins are available via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access registered professionals from home or work and to continue therapy consistently, whatever a client’s schedule requires.
