Therapeutic approaches and online care with practical flexibility
Damian integrates client-centred therapy into his online practice, creating a space where the individual's perspective and strengths are central. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the client's own insight, and it is often helpful for people navigating life changes, self-esteem concerns, or relational difficulties.
He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which involves identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT can be effective for managing anxiety, stress, sleeping difficulties, and mood-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Damian works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may blend elements from different methods to create a personalised plan that feels workable and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and easier access to regular sessions. Whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, these options allow people to engage in therapy from home or while traveling, making it simpler to maintain continuity of care and adapt to changing life demands.
