How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values and actions that matter to them. It can be useful for ongoing anxiety, avoidance and when decisions feel stalled. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers structured techniques to test and shift unhelpful thinking. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy and relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Leanne will discuss these methods with the client and together decide which fits their goals and preferences. The choice can change over time as issues evolve and new priorities emerge.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online counselling fits into busy lives by removing travel time and making it easier to schedule a short check-in during a break. Online sessions can also allow sessions without being on camera for those who prefer audio only, and they can make regular meetings simpler across time zones for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods like ACT and CBT to work well in remote sessions, focusing on real-life practice between meetings and clear, manageable steps.
