Approaches Emma Uses and Online Therapy Benefits
Emma draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered principles to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that align with those values while learning to relate differently to painful thoughts and feelings - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and persistent unhelpful thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain distress, and is often used for anxiety, depression, and practical problem-solving. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist follows the client’s pace and concerns to foster insight and self-directed growth.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Emma works collaboratively with clients to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and the pace of work so that the chosen methods align with what each person hopes to achieve.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those who prefer remote access. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support while making it easier for clients to engage in regular sessions from different locations.
