How Rachel’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and big life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical skills to reduce distress and change unhelpful patterns. It is often chosen for anxiety, low mood and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional safety, helping people understand and shift those patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will discuss these methods with each person and choose what fits their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative, with regular checks to see if the chosen approach is helping or needs adapting.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving options to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection and people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, childcare or travel.
