Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Evidence-based approaches are used to guide online work. One approach focuses on recognising patterns from earlier relationships and how they affect current behaviour; this helps with attachment problems, abandonment fears and relationship difficulties. Another approach addresses addictive behaviours by breaking them into manageable steps, building coping strategies and planning for slips so progress can continue after setbacks.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and will suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work develops.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and make it easier to have a shorter check-in when needed. It also allows work with international clients, subject to practical arrangements agreed beforehand.
