Approaches that translate well to online work
Claudia uses Client-Centred methods that prioritise listening and a non-judgemental space. This approach helps people feel heard and to shape therapy around their own goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) provides practical steps and short exercises to change unhelpful thinking and routines; these tasks are easy to assign and review in online sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the lasting effects of traumatic events by working at a pace chosen by the client and using grounding and coping strategies suited to each person.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claudia will discuss which methods feel most helpful and will adapt her way of working to match the person's needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
