Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person as an individual. The therapist follows the client’s lead, offers empathy, and helps people clarify their goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together; it uses concrete tools and practice to change unhelpful patterns and is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Julie will talk with the client about what feels most useful and try methods that match the person’s needs and preferences. Together they track progress and adjust techniques when something isn’t helping.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. These formats let people work on skills, get coaching between meetings, and meet from home or another convenient location. The range of formats supports different needs - some people prefer real-time conversation while others like brief messaging for check-ins.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
