Person-centred and mindfulness approaches for online work

Person-Centred Therapy focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s pace so the person can make sense of their feelings and choices. This suits people facing life transitions, relationship stress and issues with self-worth.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to notice thoughts and sensations without being overwhelmed. These techniques can help when anxiety, intrusive memories or strong emotion make day-to-day life harder.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and will adjust the work as understanding grows. That way sessions stay relevant and practical for the person’s situation.

This profile does not list specific session formats. It does note the therapist has undertaken online and telephone counselling training, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and mindfulness practices so they work in different settings and schedules.
