Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Esnas often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take actions that matter despite uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. This approach can be useful for anxiety, low motivation and ongoing stress. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and emotional needs, which can help with abandonment worries and intimacy concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and to try small behavioural experiments to reduce distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy journey. Esnas works collaboratively to find what fits each person's goals and preferences. She will talk through options, try different methods, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different situations. Video is well suited to in-depth work and visual connection, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief reflections, ongoing support between sessions or when writing helps someone think things through. Registered and accredited professionals offer these formats to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into daily life.
