How Jo's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Jo blends Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor online support to each person. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, abandonment, and relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing empathy and acceptance so clients feel heard and able to explore their own solutions, which suits people facing stress, grief, or self-esteem concerns. CBT offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Jo works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from these approaches to the online setting so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Jo can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from home, while still receiving the guidance and structure that help people make meaningful progress.
