Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of connection. In practice it helps clients understand attachment styles, repair relational wounds, and build more secure, trusting interactions - especially useful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasises empathic listening and the therapist’s nonjudgmental support. This approach creates space for clients to explore their feelings and values and is well suited to building self-esteem, coping with life changes, and working through grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and many forms of maladaptive coping, and it helps clients develop strategies they can apply between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and is decided collaboratively. The therapist will work with each client to consider their needs, goals, and preferences and may integrate techniques from different approaches to best support progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people access care - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, remain connected when travel is difficult, and maintain continuity of care across locations. Registered professionals can adapt their methods to remote formats so that clients receive consistent support in a way that suits their life and pace.
