Background and approach
That background shapes how she thinks about complex problems such as childhood trauma, abuse and dissociation. Sessions are collaborative and tailored. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours.
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed actions even when feelings are hard. When emotions are intense Gaye uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to build regulation and improve communication. Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs her work around attachment and closeness, helping people strengthen connection and express needs more clearly.
People meet practical tools, clear explanations and steady support. Gaye aims for realistic goals and ways to manage day-to-day life better. She welcomes conversations about how therapy could fit into a client’s routine and responsibilities.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions that match those values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and low motivation.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In sessions clients learn to test worrying thoughts and try different behaviours to reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Skills include grounding, distress tolerance and clearer communication, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming.
Choosing an approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll try methods that fit your situation and adjust them as needed over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you see facial cues and do longer sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, journals or when you need to fit therapy around work and family commitments.
