Approaches for Online Care and Therapeutic Work

Ian draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person’s own goals and experiences guide the work - this approach helps people feel heard and promotes self-directed change. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured, practical method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, panic and low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy is applied when past traumatic events are a central concern; this work addresses how trauma affects thinking, feeling and relationships and integrates strategies to process and manage trauma-related responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Ian works with clients to identify their needs, goals and preferences and adapts methods over time so the therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for scheduling and access from different locations, allowing people to engage in therapy in formats that suit their daily life and communication style. These options support continuity of care and make regular therapeutic work more achievable for many people.
