How Client-Centred Therapy works online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and feelings. The therapist listens without directing the session and offers warmth and understanding. This approach helps with grief, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns by prioritising what the person brings to each meeting.In practice, sessions are shaped by the person's needs and pace. The therapist and client decide together what to focus on and how to work, so finding the right approach is part of the process. This collaborative way of working means adjustments can be made over time to fit goals and preferences.
Online therapy with Alex uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people send messages when it suits them, which can fit around work or caring duties. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life, while keeping the focus on the person's needs and progress.
