How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters to them, and take small actions aligned with their values. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches practical exercises to change patterns that fuel depression, worry and sleep problems.
Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person's perspective and uses reflective listening to deepen emotional understanding. This can support work on attachment, abandonment concerns and relationship patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and review progress as sessions continue.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. The therapist will work with practical needs to help sessions fit around everyday life rather than promise a particular delivery style.
