Approaches that guide online therapeutic work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current ways of relating to others and to oneself. It helps people address patterns of trust, closeness, and separation that contribute to anxiety, relationship strain, or feelings of abandonment.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helping them explore personal values, build self-understanding, and strengthen confidence to make changes that matter.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress by developing coping strategies and problem-solving skills.
Natalie approaches the selection of methods as a collaborative process. She works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and will tailor techniques from these approaches to find the best fit as therapy progresses.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - provide flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who adapt their approach to each client’s circumstances.
