How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client so they can find their own solutions; it helps with low self-esteem, grief and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers straightforward exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the problem, and adjust the plan as they learn what helps. This is a collaborative process where feedback shapes each step.

Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing sessions during a short break. Different session arrangements can suit different needs, so please confirm the current session options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy approachable and practical, helping people use techniques between sessions and apply them in everyday situations.
