Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Emma Smith incorporates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current connection patterns and can be useful for relationship challenges, attachment issues, and feelings of isolation. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, acceptance, and meeting individuals where they are, supporting people who seek a collaborative, nonjudgmental space to work through identity, life purpose, or emotional struggle. CBT is a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often used for mood disorders, anxiety, and patterns that maintain distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Emma works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and personal preferences. She tailors strategies over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for each person.
Online therapy with Emma is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to fit consistent therapeutic work into busy lives while maintaining the relational focus central to her practice.
