04Online support
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Makeesa often uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people change thoughts and behaviors and build better coping skills. Cognitive-style approaches help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns so anxiety and guilt feel less overwhelming. Skill-based work teaches practical tools for managing stress, improving communication, and handling strong emotions.She also integrates trauma-informed strategies that prioritize safety and pacing. These methods help people process difficult memories and reduce the day-to-day impact of post-traumatic stress and past abuse. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which approaches fit best, based on their goals, history, and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people read body language and hold fuller conversations, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, focused skill practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to keep consistent appointments and build progress over time.
