Step 3

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and to act on personal values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and when life changes make decisions feel hard.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and early bonds to understand current emotional reactions. It can help with worry about closeness, abandonment fears and recurring relationship difficulties.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It teaches practical steps to shift unhelpful thinking and develop coping strategies for depression, sleeping problems and anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and test which methods fit best. Decisions are made together and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find online working helps fit therapy into busy days, reduces travel time and makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also make shorter check-ins or longer therapy blocks more practical, depending on what a person needs and the agreed plan.
