How Annette’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and ongoing stress where getting stuck on thoughts causes problems.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns formed early in life and how they affect current connections. This approach can help with intimacy-related issues, communication problems and managing emotional distance.
Client-Centred Therapy gives space for the person to lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects and supports. It helps people build confidence, self-esteem and a clearer sense of direction.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, check what feels right and adapt methods to each person’s goals and preferences. The focus is on finding a mix that makes sense for the issue at hand.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a therapy-style conversation and visual cues. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing or want flexible ways to check in between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
