Approaches That Guide Online Sessions
Jean Briscoe draws on client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches to shape online work. Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, offering empathy and acceptance so clients can explore feelings and values at their own pace - it suits people seeking supportive, reflective work for issues like relationship concerns, self-esteem, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical strategies to manage symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or stress. CBT is often useful when clients want structured tools and short-term goals to improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jean collaborates with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She works alongside clients to adapt methods over time, combining elements of different models when that better serves progress.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, health, or family commitments. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations and to maintain continuity of care during life changes, while allowing therapists to tailor pace and format to each client’s circumstances.
