How approaches like attachment work online

A core strand of her work is attachment-based thinking. This approach looks at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and reactions, and can help when relationship trust or abandonment issues are impacting day to day life.

She also uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and reflecting what you say. That helps people feel understood and makes it easier to notice their own thoughts and choices. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and practise different responses, which can help with anxiety, panic and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative, so plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made.

The biography notes telephone clients and weekly sessions at the same time and place, and mentions short term and long term work. If you need other formats, confirm current options before booking. Online or remote work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
