Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react a certain way in close connections and can reduce fear of abandonment or disconnection. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on feelings in relationships and helps people identify and change patterns that cause pain in close bonds. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre and uses empathic listening to encourage self-understanding and change.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Decisions about short-term or longer-term ways of working are made collaboratively and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit people who need lower bandwidth or prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, written reflection or fitting sessions into a busy day. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family commitments and travel.
