How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and their experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and works to build trust so clients can talk about what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, so the plan stays relevant to the client's needs.
If you are considering online work, check the current session options before booking. Many people value online sessions for fitting therapy into busy lives, saving travel time, or having a quieter check-in during a break. Online counselling can make it easier to use creative tasks in-session, such as writing exercises, and to carry agreed homework into everyday life. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can help you weigh practical factors and choose a way of working that suits your routine and goals.
