Online support
How attachment work and practical therapy translate online
The practice uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. This approach helps people identify where they feel stuck in closeness and plan small changes to feel safer and more connected. Client-Centered Therapy is also central, focusing on listening closely and following each person’s goals and pace while offering empathy and reflection that build self-understanding.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide whether attachment-focused insight, practical cognitive tools, or solution-focused coaching best fit their needs. This is a joint process that can shift as goals change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and try communication exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging are convenient for brief updates, coaching prompts, or when writing helps a person sort thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and different comfort levels.
