Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression and life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and the counsellor's genuine presence to help people gain self-understanding and confidence; it suits those who need a steady, accepting space. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses straightforward exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for stress, anxiety and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jurgen will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adapt the plan as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can fit therapy around work, family and daily life. Video lets you see body language and have longer conversations. Phone sessions work well when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier than talking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to maintain alongside other commitments.
