Approaches for trauma and goal-focused online work
Nikki uses Client-Centred Therapy and EMDR in her online practice. Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor listens without judgement and follows the person’s lead to build understanding and clarity. It helps when someone needs support to make sense of feelings and choices. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, EMDR, involves brief, structured procedures that can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and their emotional impact.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Nikki will discuss what feels most useful and try gentle methods first, then adapt as goals and needs become clearer. The process is collaborative, with choices tailored to each person’s comfort and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins, ongoing reflection, or when writing helps to organise thoughts. These options help people fit therapy around family, work and daily life while keeping continuity of care.
