Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Carole works with client-centred therapy, which places the person's experience and priorities at the heart of sessions and helps build self-awareness, confidence and trust in personal choices. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, low mood and stress. Motivational interviewing is another approach she applies to support people who are ambivalent about change - it focuses on drawing out the client’s own motivation and building commitment to achievable steps forward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Carole collaborates with clients to identify which methods best suit their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts techniques as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what will be most helpful for each person.

Online therapy with Carole is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family or mobility considerations, and they allow licensed professionals like Carole to deliver effective support across a range of concerns and life stages.
