Online session options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Hattie often uses Narrative Therapy to help people retell difficult experiences and notice the parts of their story that empower them. This approach is useful for grief, identity shifts, and relationship concerns where reframing can change how someone feels and acts.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships influence emotions and behavior. That perspective helps when people want to understand patterns in close relationships or improve emotional connection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in many sessions as a practical way to spot automatic thoughts and try different responses when anxiety or depression shows up.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Hattie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as needed so therapy stays useful and focused.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for full conversations and exercises, while phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are good for brief check-ins, quick coping strategies, or when someone prefers typing. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, school, or family life and to keep continuity when schedules change.
