Applying therapeutic approaches to online support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a non-judgmental, empathetic space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers understanding and acceptance. This approach helps people who need emotional support, greater self-awareness, and a safe place to process difficult feelings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, panic, and patterns that maintain stress or addictive behaviours.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying goals and building on existing strengths to find workable steps forward. It can be useful for people seeking focused, goal-oriented change over a shorter timeframe.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is explored collaboratively. Peter will work with clients to understand their needs, goals and preferences and tailor sessions accordingly, combining methods where appropriate to suit each person.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone allow face-to-face interaction when needed, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options for regular check-ins or shorter, more frequent contact. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to connect with licensed professionals from different locations.
