Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that matter to them. It can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with long-term problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and gives clear, step-by-step strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic, sleep and mood problems.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy journey. Lorraine will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals, needs and preferences. That might mean combining ACT and CBT techniques or drawing on attachment ideas to understand relationship patterns. The plan is reviewed as therapy progresses so it stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are useful for more conversational work and exercises, phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can suit short check-ins or people who prefer written communication. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while still using evidence-informed techniques.
