Online session options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that reflect what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships and helps create alternative, more helpful narratives for dealing with problems. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early patterns with caregivers shape present relationships and can be helpful for intimacy, relationship and attachment issues.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches in session and adapt methods to suit each person’s needs and preferences. That way the work stays practical and relevant to what the person wants to change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when a quieter connection is needed, live chat can fit short check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options support flexible scheduling and different ways of working that fit everyday life.
