Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Dominique uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and trying practical changes. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and replace it with more workable thoughts and actions; this is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach looks at attachment and relationship patterns to improve communication, boundaries and connection in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Dominique will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break from work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing reflection and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around family, work and other commitments.
