How Jose’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in how people relate to others. Online sessions can help spot recurring relationship reactions and try new ways of responding. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist following the client's pace and reflecting what matters most. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift painful emotions in the moment, which can be done effectively in conversation and guided exercises over video or phone.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jose will discuss options and test what helps early on, adjusting methods to match the client's goals and style. This is a collaborative arrangement where the person’s preferences shape the work.
Online formats give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and reading body language. Phone sessions work when internet or bandwidth is limited, or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer shorter, written exchanges or need session-style support without being on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
