04Online support
Approaches that fit online care
Hedlun uses client-centered listening to create space for people to talk through what matters most. That approach focuses on respectful listening, reflecting feelings, and helping a person make sense of their own experience.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is used when patterns of thinking or behavior get in the way. CBT breaks problems into small parts and tests new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or tackle anger and worry.
Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that can change daily life quickly. It helps people identify what already works and build on those strengths to reach clear goals.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Hedlun will discuss options, try methods that match someone's goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The process is collaborative and goal oriented.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging works well for short updates or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and practice new skills in real time.
