Online support

How attachment work and practical therapies translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current responses; it can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and family of origin concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows the client's pace and priorities to build self-understanding and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through concrete exercises and skill practice, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as needed. That means setting clear steps together and checking in on what helps most during sessions.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or mobility limits while keeping focus on practical skill building and relationship work.
