Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can try online
Gina draws on Existential Therapy to help people identify what matters to them and to navigate uncertainty and life transitions. This approach focuses on values, meaning and making choices that fit the life someone wants to build.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - which teaches practical ways to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed steps toward personal goals. ACT is often useful for anxiety, depression and coping with chronic stress.
Attachment-based work is used to look at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect current wellbeing. It can help people understand recurring relationship difficulties and build different ways of relating.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Gina will work with clients to decide which methods fit best, tailoring sessions to each person’s goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls suit deeper conversations and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier with lower bandwidth, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing, between-session contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
