How client‑centred practice works online
Kari uses client‑centred therapy, which centres on the person rather than the counsellor. The focus is on listening, reflecting what you say, and helping you find your own answers. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self‑esteem, relationship worries and navigating life changes.In sessions she aims to build a trusting relationship where people feel heard and can talk at their own pace. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Kari will discuss your needs and preferences and help decide on a way of working that fits your goals and comfort level.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face‑to‑face conversation when more nuance is needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use a camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check‑ins, brief reflections between sessions or people who find writing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, care responsibilities and day‑to‑day life.
