04Online support
Practical approaches for online therapy
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then testing new, more helpful ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness. These techniques can help with stress, panic, and managing strong feelings after trauma.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and needs and suggest which methods to try first. Clients and the therapist then adjust the plan as progress is seen or new priorities arise.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or when writing helps someone collect their thoughts. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and practice skills between meetings.
