How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what you say. The therapist offers empathy and reflection to help you make sense of problems and find your own solutions. This approach works well for people who need a supportive space to talk through feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and the actions that follow. It uses straightforward exercises and practical strategies to change patterns that keep problems going. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems and unhelpful habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with you about your goals and preferences and suggest methods that suit you. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video gives the closest match to in-person conversation, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins and flexible pacing when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, caring duties or when travel is difficult.
