Practical approaches for online therapy and parenting stress

Adele commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, concrete steps and building on what already works to move toward goals.

Finding the right fit is a team effort. She will talk with clients about goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps tailor strategies for parenting strain, life transitions, or mood concerns.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules. These options make it easier to get regular support without long commutes and allow clients to choose the way they feel most comfortable communicating. The therapist will work with each person to set a rhythm and format that fits daily life and therapeutic goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
