Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Gemma draws on client-centered therapy to place the individual’s experience at the heart of the work - this approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and supporting a person to find their own solutions, which can help with relationship issues, self-esteem, and coping with change.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, structured method that explores the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and helps develop skills to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress.
Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, offering useful tools for emotion regulation and day-to-day stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gemma works collaboratively with each person and with other licensed professionals where appropriate to determine which methods best suit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress is made.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, limited mobility, or those living outside commuting distance. These options make regular contact and continuity of care more accessible while allowing therapists to tailor session formats to practical needs and personal comfort.
