Elaine Campbell

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Elaine draws on client-centred therapy to place the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That means the counsellor listens carefully, reflects what she hears and helps people set goals that feel meaningful to them. This approach suits people who want an empathic, steady space to talk about what matters.

She also uses existential therapy to address questions about meaning, choice and life direction. This can be helpful when people face major life changes, midlife concerns or feelings of emptiness. Mindfulness approaches are used to teach simple grounding and breathing practices that help manage strong emotions and reduce rumination.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Elaine will discuss options and tailor methods based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. The guidance is collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit those who prefer writing, need more frequent brief touchpoints, or want to reflect before responding. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life.
