Therapeutic approaches and online support tailored to you
Carol uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT can be useful for handling anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is employed to identify and adjust unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns; it is often applied to anxiety, low mood, sleep issues, and practical problems like procrastination. Client-Centred Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, creating a space where clients lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist offers support and reflection.Finding the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Carol will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adapting the plan as progress unfolds so the care fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy with Carol is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit sessions around work, family, and daily life. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel, and they allow ongoing work to continue in ways that suit each client’s routine and comfort.
