Approaches that guide online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a practical approach that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is often used for issues such as anxiety, low mood and stress, and focuses on developing coping strategies and measurable goals.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered method that helps people discover their own reasons for change. It can be particularly useful for motivation-related concerns, addictions and when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about taking the next step.

Narrative Therapy invites clients to explore the stories they tell about themselves and their lives, separating problems from identity and opening up new perspectives. This approach can help with self-esteem, relationship difficulties and understanding the impact of past experiences.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Jason works collaboratively with clients to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. He adapts sessions over time so the approach evolves with progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter exchanges are possible via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care, and access registered professionals from wherever the client is located within the United Kingdom.
