Online session options

How Narrative and Attachment Work Online

Online sessions make it possible to use Narrative Therapy to revisit the stories that guide daily choices. In this approach the therapist helps a person name recurring themes in their life, separate themselves from unhelpful narratives, and try new ways of relating to problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current responses. Online work can focus on noticing patterns in close relationships and developing different ways to feel and act in those moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tanya will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and then try techniques that fit. The process is collaborative - plans are adjusted based on what helps most, whether that means skill practice, reflective storytelling, or attention to relationship patterns.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use facial cues and screen sharing for worksheets, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited or a camera-free conversation is preferred, live chat offers a shorter check-in option, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
