How Holly's client-centred approach works online
Holly uses client-centred therapy, which means sessions focus on the person's own perspective and priorities. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the person make sense of their feelings, which often helps with anxiety, low mood and relationship worries.r>In practice, sessions use straightforward conversation rather than structured techniques. Holly will encourage people to set the pace and topics, and to try small changes between sessions when that feels useful. This way of working often helps with issues such as trauma, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes.r>
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Holly will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt sessions to the person's goals and preferences. Decisions about pace, focus and tasks are made collaboratively rather than imposed by the therapist.r>
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video lets people see non-verbal cues, phone calls can be shorter or use less bandwidth, and messaging works well for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options support flexibility, allowing people to choose what works best for their routine and needs.
