Background and approach
That process can help clients gain insight, build confidence and make clearer choices. He uses an integrative approach and combines elements from client-centred work, Jungian ideas and coaching. Sessions are adapted to the individual so practical tools are developed that fit each person's situation.
The goal is to build resilience and help clients move toward where they want to be. Issaka has four years of experience practising in the United Kingdom and is associated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He offers sessions in English and can work with people internationally.
People can expect a collaborative style. He listens, asks questions and helps identify small, manageable steps. Over repeated sessions the focus can shift from immediate coping to longer term change and personal growth.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centred therapy places the client at the heart of conversation. It involves careful listening and reflecting back what is said so people feel heard and understood. This approach is useful for building self-esteem and finding clearer direction.Motivational interviewing focuses on a person's own reasons for change and strengthens their motivation. Short, guided conversations help with issues like addiction, ambivalence about life changes or making new routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. This is a collaborative process where the client helps shape what happens in sessions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more nuance is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, need quick access between sessions or want to reflect on thoughts in writing. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists trained in these approaches, deliver sessions with options to match different lifestyles and schedules.
