How her approaches work for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and focuses on actions that match personal values. It can help with anger, anxiety and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, and can be useful for relationship and intimacy-related problems. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathy, listening and the person's own capacity to find solutions, which supports self-esteem and emotional recovery.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. This means sessions can combine listening, practical exercises and mindfulness tools tailored to what helps you most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises or emotionally-focused interventions from wherever they are, while keeping the focus on making practical changes that matter day to day.
