Ways of working Wellington 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 therapeutic approaches translate to online work

The counsellor commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take manageable steps towards a life they find meaningful. ACT includes simple exercises to notice thoughts and commit to value-led actions, which can be practised between sessions.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current reactions. This approach helps people understand emotional triggers and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Wellington works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. He will discuss options, try techniques in session and adjust the plan as progress and feedback emerge.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video offers face-to-face contact for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or want flexible, brief exchanges during the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, care duties and travel.
