Online support
Therapy approaches and online sessions
Sarah uses hypnotherapy to help people access focused relaxation and guided visualisation, which can support change in habits, anxiety and sleep problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them and to take actions that matter to them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people build safer ways of relating in adult life.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify goals and choose methods that suit each person's needs and preferences. That may mean combining techniques across approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is reviewed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit ongoing support between calls or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
