Online session options
Therapeutic approaches through online sessions
Lauryn uses Narrative Therapy to help people untangle the stories they tell about themselves and spot alternatives that feel truer and more helpful. This approach suits people who want to change how a past event or label shapes day-to-day life.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and then take actions that match their values. That approach often helps with anxiety, low mood and coping with long-term challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lauryn will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan based on your goals and preferences. The process is collaborative so adjustments can be made as needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video lets you keep a face-to-face feel, phone can work with low bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping the focus on the therapeutic goals.
