How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful space where people can speak openly. Online sessions can still provide that listening and acceptance while people talk about stress, grief or relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses clear steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and problem-solving, and works well when sessions include practical exercises and agreed homework.

Psychodynamic ideas help people notice patterns from past experiences that affect current feelings and relationships. Talking through these patterns can reveal links between history and present difficulties.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods as you go.

The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into busy lives, such as fitting appointments around work, reducing travel time or choosing quieter surroundings. Sessions can also allow shorter check-ins or focused practical work when needed.
