How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites you to clarify what matters most and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes because it focuses on meaningful goals rather than just symptom reduction.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people feel understood. This approach helps people gain clarity and confidence by following their own pace and priorities.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for low mood, worry and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help you choose methods that fit your goals, preferences and current needs, and may combine techniques as appropriate. Conversations in early sessions are used to set priorities and decide what to try next.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy day easier by reducing travel and allowing check-ins from quieter surroundings or during a work break. Phone sessions can be useful when camera use is difficult, while video sessions allow visual connection for exercises and guided mindfulness. Whatever format is offered, the focus is on practical steps you can use between meetings to manage stress, grief or relationship change.
