Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and a collaborative relationship where the therapist reflects and supports a person’s own capacity for growth - it is well suited to building self-esteem, improving confidence, and addressing relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses structured techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; it often helps with stress, anxiety, low mood, and coping with eating-related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-focused awareness and simple practices to reduce rumination and increase emotional regulation, which can be helpful for anxiety and ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alexandra works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process means approaches can be tailored or combined over time to better support progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to access licensed professionals from home or work and to choose the format that best suits their schedule and comfort. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapeutic work into everyday life.
