Approaches that guide online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps people find their own answers, which can be useful for relationship issues and feelings of shame.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change patterns linked to addiction.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus. It can help with stress, rumination and managing difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals and preferences and then try methods that suit those aims. This is a collaborative process aimed at finding what helps in everyday life.

The biography does not specify exact online session types, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means people in different countries may be able to arrange sessions with registered professionals, subject to practical and regional considerations.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
