Sessions are shaped around the practical problems a person brings. In sessions Ciaran aims to understand each person’s story and what they want to change. He adapts conversational and relational techniques to match those goals.

How integrative relational techniques translate to online therapy

Therapy here draws on integrative and relational ideas that are blended to fit each person. An integrative approach mixes complementary methods so sessions can be both practical and reflective; it suits people facing anxiety, low mood and life transitions. A relational approach focuses on patterns in how people connect with others and themselves, which can help with relationship worries, attachment concerns and intimacy issues.

Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. The counsellor will explore your goals and preferences and suggest approaches that match what you want to change. This is a collaborative process where you and the therapist try things and adjust based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions use less data and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, ongoing reflection, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel.
