How therapy approaches are used online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without being led by them and to focus on living in line with what matters. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and uncertainty about life direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for stress, anxiety and depression.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help with intimacy concerns, attachment issues and relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they will try approaches or mix methods and check in about what helps most as therapy progresses.
If you want online sessions, confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. The biography notes that online and telephone counselling have been used by this therapist. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day. Telephone sessions can be a simpler option when video is not practical. These practical benefits are considered alongside what will best support each person’s goals.
