Approaches that suit online counselling
Claudia draws on client-centred work that keeps the person in charge of session goals and pace. This approach helps people who need to talk things through in their own way and time, and it often supports issues such as low self-esteem, grief and cultural adjustment.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleeping problems and codependency patterns because it offers practical tools to use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claudia will discuss what feels most useful and may combine methods as needs and goals become clearer. The decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
