Approaches that inform online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It helps people understand their emotional needs and attachment styles, which can improve connections and reduce relationship-related distress. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, using empathy and active listening so clients can explore their feelings and find their own solutions; it is useful for building self-esteem and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical tools to shift unhelpful patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Nia works collaboratively with clients to identify which approach or combination of approaches is the best fit for their goals, preferences, and circumstances. Finding the right therapeutic style is part of the work, and she tailors the process together with each person to support progress.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make scheduling more flexible and accessible for busy lives, varied time zones, or mobility limitations. These formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care, offer timely support, and adapt session styles to what suits the client best.
