How her approaches work in online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and close connections. It helps people understand why certain situations trigger strong emotions and patterns in relationships.Client-centred counselling focuses on listening with respect and helping people feel understood. This approach is useful when someone needs space to talk through identity, grief, or relationship worries without feeling judged.
Cognitive behavioural techniques concentrate on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. They offer clear tools to reduce anxiety, shift unhelpful thinking and build small, manageable routines for stress relief.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and adjust methods based on each person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where goals and practical steps are agreed together.
