Approaches and Online Support for Personal Growth

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the person is supported to explore their experiences at their own pace - it is useful for building self-awareness, confidence, and emotional understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, making it a good fit for anxiety, overthinking, low mood, and many day-to-day difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of connecting with others and can help with relationship challenges, attachment issues, and patterns that cause pain in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Leanne McCann works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what will be most helpful for the individual's circumstances.

Online therapy with Leanne can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments. These options make accessing licensed professionals and therapists easier from different locations and allow people to choose the format that feels most comfortable and practical for them.
