Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters most to the person and small actions that move life in that direction, which can help with anxiety, depression and major life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences affect trust and connection now. It can help with intimacy issues, attachment concerns and problems that repeat in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chris will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. That process is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
