How Lynne uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical strategies to test and change patterns that cause distress. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on genuine listening, empathy and creating a non-judgemental space so the person can find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lynne will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people read facial cues and use interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or times when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family life and other commitments.
