How Lorraine's Therapeutic Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape expectations and reactions in current relationships. Used in online sessions, it helps clients explore patterns of closeness, trust, and separation and supports work on issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, and relationship problems.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's own experience and personal growth. The therapist provides empathic listening and reflective feedback to help clients clarify feelings and make choices aligned with their values - an approach that suits people coping with life changes, low mood, or questions about life purpose.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety, depression, or impulsive patterns. In practical online sessions, CBT offers tools and exercises that clients can apply between meetings to build coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Lorraine collaborates with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time to match how the client responds.

Online therapy with registered professionals offers flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit counselling into busy schedules or to access support from different locations. These options help maintain continuity of care and make it simpler to try different formats while focusing on meaningful progress.
