How Ceri's approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and act in line with their values. Online ACT sessions focus on simple exercises to clarify what matters and small steps to move towards it. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current bonds and trust. Work in this style often involves talking through relationship stories and trying new ways of connecting and responding.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ceri will discuss different methods and together with the client decide what feels most useful for their goals and preferences. That conversation is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to match what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexibility and practical options. Video calls are close to face-to-face contact and good for doing guided mindfulness or imagery work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter check-ins or for people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it simpler to keep momentum between sessions and to fit therapy around daily life.
