Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Support



Louise integrates client-centered work with cognitive behavioural techniques to provide practical, compassionate online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building an empathic, non-directive relationship where the client’s own goals and personal insight guide progress - it is helpful for issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and improve coping in everyday situations.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Louise treats that choice as a collaborative process. She works with clients to explore what feels most useful and adjusts methods over time to align with evolving needs and goals.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility around work, family, and location. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity between appointments, and access support from wherever a client is located in the United Kingdom.
