Online support options

How evidence-based approaches work online

Dipti draws on cognitive techniques that help people recognise and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours. These approaches can be useful for anxiety, obsessive thoughts and mood concerns by teaching practical coping strategies and structured ways to test beliefs.

She also uses person-centred principles which focus on listening carefully and building a trustworthy therapeutic relationship. This helps people explore values, identity and relationship patterns at a comfortable pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dipti will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods to suit the person’s needs. The choice of technique is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people juggling busy lives. Video calls let conversations feel closer to face to face while phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, regular encouragement and brief problem-solving between longer sessions. These formats give flexibility to fit sessions around work, caring roles and daily commitments while keeping continuity of care with an appropriately qualified therapist.
