How different approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that matter, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions.Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work. The therapist listens without judgment and offers empathy to help someone understand themselves better and build confidence. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to explore emotions and identity.
Finding the right approach is something the therapist does with the client. Adrian will talk about what feels most relevant and try different ways of working until something fits. That decision is guided by the client's goals, needs and what they find most helpful in sessions.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
