About Lianne

Online support options
How Lianne's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say and helps them feel respected and clearer about their own goals. This approach is helpful for people who need a non-judgemental space to talk about difficult feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. Online CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety, low mood or stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and achievable goals, so sessions often include short exercises and planning to build immediate momentum.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the person's needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and richer non-verbal feedback. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer short, frequent exchanges or who want to reflect in writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while using the therapeutic approaches above.
