How Client-Centred and Existential Work Translate Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the individual find their own answers. This approach can help with confidence, motivation and relationship or family concerns by encouraging self-understanding and practical next steps.

Existential Therapy examines meaning, choice and values. It invites people to consider what matters most and how they want to live. This can be useful when facing career crossroads, grief, life transitions or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client’s needs, goals and personal preferences. They will discuss what feels helpful and adjust the approach as the work progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel. It also allows for shorter check-ins, support when wider travel would be difficult, and the chance to meet a therapist who speaks English or Welsh even if they are based elsewhere.
