Attachment, Client-Centered, and CBT Approaches Online
Lisa Powell integrates attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioural therapy to address emotional and relational difficulties. Attachment-based therapy explores early and ongoing relationship patterns to help people understand how attachment needs affect current relationships and coping - it can be particularly helpful for issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, and attachment difficulties.Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where a personâs own insights and strengths guide change - this approach supports self-esteem, decision-making and emotional processing. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, offering practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, and change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa Powell works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best with their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy remains responsive and effective.

These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
