Her approach draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT).

She adapts these methods to the person’s needs, using simple techniques to manage stress, anxiety, mood and trauma-related symptoms. Esra has worked in different mental health settings and brings that experience into sessions. She supports people coping with grief, relationship and family concerns, parenting pressures, work stress and major life changes.

She also helps with sleep, eating and self-esteem difficulties. Practical work is part of her style. Clients agree on between-session exercises when useful.

Ways of working Esra names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people address the effects of traumatic events by gently processing memories and reducing their impact on daily life. It often includes paced work on specific distressing memories and coping skills to manage strong emotions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to identify what matters to them and to take small actions that align with those values. It combines practical exercises with attention training to reduce avoidance and increase resilience for issues like anxiety, grief and major life changes.

Client-Centred Therapy offers time and space for someone to be heard without judgement. The therapist provides empathy and reflective listening so the person can find their own solutions and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Esra will discuss options and tailor methods to the person’s goals, needs and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful and what the person wants to focus on.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be shorter check-ins and use less bandwidth, while live chat or text-based messaging suit those who prefer typing or need brief, flexible contact. These formats give more choice about how and when to work on issues such as trauma, anxiety and relationship concerns.
