Therapeutic approaches and online support tailored to you
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to anxiety, depression or stress. It is practical and goal-focused, offering skills to manage symptoms and respond differently to challenging situations.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns in connection, trust and intimacy. It can be particularly helpful for people dealing with relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, or attachment-related distress.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Dr. Reilly works collaboratively with clients to assess their needs, goals and preferences and then tailors a plan that may draw on one or more approaches so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to schedule sessions around work, family and other commitments. These formats allow ongoing therapeutic support from wherever the client is located and can be adapted to suit different communication styles and practical needs.
