Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Deborah Faulkner draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide online work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that develop from early connections and can be helpful for people struggling with abandonment, intimacy, or family relationship issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic stance where the client directs the pace and focus of sessions and is well suited to building self-esteem, processing grief, or navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Deborah will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process means adjustments can be made over time to ensure the work feels effective and respectful of the client’s pace.
Online therapy with Deborah is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations, and choose the format that feels most manageable while working with licensed professionals and therapists trained to deliver effective remote care.
