Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current emotional responses and close connections, helping with intimacy issues, relationship patterns, and healing from relational wounds. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, supporting clients to access their own strengths, increase self-esteem, and clarify personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alfred works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts the plan over time so therapy remains aligned with what is most helpful.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions, and provide multiple ways to engage that suit different communication styles. These options make it possible to access regular, professional support from licensed professionals without the need for in-person visits.
