Online support
How therapy approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then commit to actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to move past avoidance and start living in line with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers clear tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and change behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help people shift patterns that cause pain in relationships.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify what feels most useful based on the person’s goals and preferences. That may mean using ACT exercises one week, CBT tools the next, and exploring attachment patterns over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or messaging works well for brief check-ins, ongoing support and people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments.
