Background and approach

His practice mixes well-known psychotherapy techniques to match each person’s needs. He draws on cognitive behavioural methods, acceptance-based ideas and attachment-focused thinking to build coping strategies. The aim is to reduce avoidance, improve day-to-day functioning and make feared situations feel more manageable.

Clients may be offered a blend of short-term skill work and deeper exploration, depending on goals. He also has experience giving training and supervision in psychological approaches to other professionals. That experience informs practical tools and clear explanations during sessions.

Dr Reilly is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, HCPC. He works with adults and young people and accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Sessions are available online in a variety of formats to fit different needs.

Practical therapy approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, encourages people to notice difficult thoughts without being driven by them and to take small steps towards what matters. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and phobias because it focuses on living a meaningful life despite uncomfortable feelings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches straightforward techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic and phobic avoidance by breaking problems into manageable steps.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. It can help when fears, trust or closeness cause relationship strain or recurring anxiety responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods collaboratively. That means sessions can combine skill-building, talking therapies and reflective work to match each person’s needs.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different situations. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging can serve for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent when life is busy or travel is difficult.
