How these approaches can work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current bonds and patterns. It can help when someone notices repeated hurt in close relationships or struggles with trust and intimacy. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the session and relies on active listening and empathy so clients set the pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will explore which methods feel most helpful. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as understanding grows.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and maintain continuity when life is changing. It also allows sessions to be shorter or more flexible when needed, and can suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a quieter setting. The biography does not list specific formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking.
