Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Jareeda draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic understanding and supporting clients to explore their own goals and values in a non-directive way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, manage stress, and improve day-to-day functioning.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the journey, and Jareeda works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She reviews progress together and adjusts the approach as needed so therapy remains responsive and relevant.
