Evidence-informed approaches for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on what matters most to a person and on taking small actions aligned with those values. It helps when worry or avoidance gets in the way of living the life someone wants. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people notice repeating cycles in close relationships and try gentler ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will discuss different methods and help decide which fit the person's goals and preferences. That choice is made together and can change as progress is made or new issues arise.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit in. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit low-bandwidth situations, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for people balancing work, family and other commitments.
