Therapy approaches you can try online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while guiding choices that match personal values. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and habits influence feelings and behaviour, offering clear techniques to change unhelpful patterns and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns shape reactions and helps people build more secure ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jay will talk with you about your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. The plan can shift as progress is made, so therapy stays tailored to what helps you most.
Confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or let someone join without needing to be on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals often use online meetings to keep continuity of care when circumstances change, and your counsellor will discuss practical arrangements with you when you set up sessions.
