Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches work online
Precious draws on Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe the stories that shape their lives. That work looks at recurring themes in a person’s relationships, work, and identity, and helps people test new ways of thinking and acting. It can be useful for relationship strain, life changes, and issues that feel tied to a long-running story.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Client-centered work focuses on listening, understanding, and responding to what matters most to the person. CBT brings simple, hands-on strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems in place. Together these approaches let sessions be both supportive and action-oriented.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will help you identify goals and try methods that match your needs, preferences, and pace. That collaborative process means adjustments can be made as you learn what helps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can be good for shorter check-ins, quick coaching, or fitting support into a busy day. These options make it easier to schedule consistent work around school, work, or family commitments.
