Therapeutic approaches and online support
Carol integrates several established approaches to tailor therapy to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people address difficulties with trust, closeness, and emotional connection, which can be useful for those dealing with relationship strain or attachment concerns.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual's own experience and capacity for growth. Through empathic listening and acceptance, this approach helps clients build self-understanding and self-compassion, often supporting work with low self-esteem, life transitions, and recovery from trauma.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. It can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, and some forms of compulsive behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Carol works collaboratively with each client to identify the methods that best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, plus options for live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into a busy life or to access help across distances. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, ongoing care while accommodating different schedules and communication preferences.
