How his approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current trust and connection. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in how they form bonds and try new ways of relating in everyday life. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of every session, with the therapist offering empathy and non-judgemental listening to help clients find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. This collaborative process helps make sure sessions match practical needs and personal style rather than sticking to a single method.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging adds flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversations and deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can fit around busy days or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, journalling between sessions or when a full session is not possible. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel commitments.
