Approaches and online support for healing and change
Jody draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Mindfulness practices to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an empathic, non-directive space where the person’s own goals steer the work - it suits those seeking understanding, validation and long-term personal growth. CBT offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, often helping with anxiety, depression and stress-related issues. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce emotional reactivity and improve coping with difficult feelings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Jody works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that best fit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting techniques as the work progresses to ensure a good fit.
Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel. These options offer flexibility for different schedules and communication styles, helping people maintain momentum in therapy while fitting sessions into busy lives.
