Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It helps people understand attachment needs and fears so they can form more secure connections and address issues like abandonment, relationship difficulties, and family stress.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the individual’s experience by offering empathic listening and nonjudgmental support. This approach helps clients explore their feelings and values, increase self-understanding, and make choices that align with their goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and is treated as a collaborative effort. Althiea will work with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, drawing on practices commonly used by licensed professionals and therapists to tailor the plan.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or those living far from in-person services. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in therapy and to access support from different locations while accommodating personal preferences and practical needs.
