Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that reflect their values. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by building psychological flexibility. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, offering practical tools for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety and sleep difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work, emphasising empathy, respect and collaborative exploration to support self-understanding and healing.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Leah works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home. Appropriately qualified or registered professionals can deliver effective care through these formats, and therapists tailor the mode of contact to suit each client’s circumstances and comfort level.
