Therapeutic approaches and online care with Anna Rita Iaboni

Anna Rita draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor support to each person. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early bonds can shape current responses, which can be helpful for people working on intimacy, abandonment, or attachment issues. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a nonjudgemental space that allows clients to lead the pace of their own discovery, supporting self-esteem and personal growth. CBT offers practical, structured techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop strategies to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Anna Rita works collaboratively with clients to decide which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. As a BACP-registered counsellor she aims to combine professional frameworks with the client’s values and life context to shape a personalised plan.

Online therapy with Anna Rita is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and life situations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care whether managing work, family responsibilities, or mobility limitations, and they support ongoing access to therapy from familiar surroundings.
