Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathy, respect and unconditional positive regard, giving people space to explore their feelings and build self-understanding; it is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, offering practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression and stress-related patterns. Trauma-Focused Therapy works directly with the effects of traumatic experiences to reduce distress and support recovery, and can be suited to those coping with PTSD, abuse or significant loss.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Julie works collaboratively with clients to tailor methods based on individual needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. This collaborative exploration helps ensure therapy aligns with what each person is looking to achieve.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging provides flexibility for fitting sessions into busy lives and reduces the need to travel. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver the approaches above through these formats, making effective support more accessible for people with varied schedules and circumstances.
