Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the relationship between therapist and client, offering a nonjudgmental, empathetic space where people can explore feelings and personal values to build self-awareness and resilience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and helps people develop more secure ways of connecting and relating.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Tanya works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, mixing tools from different approaches when helpful and adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.



Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access ongoing support from home or while traveling. These formats allow scheduled, consistent work on coping skills, relationship concerns, grief, and other issues, while accommodating different lifestyles and accessibility needs so therapy can fit into busy lives.
