How Raymond's approaches work online
Raymond often combines psychodynamic work with cognitive behavioural therapy to help people understand repeating patterns and try practical changes. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and relationships, while CBT focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to reduce symptoms.He also uses motivational interviewing to support people who feel stuck about change. That approach helps people weigh options, find personal motivation and commit to small steps. Together these methods aim to deepen understanding and create manageable plans for moving forward.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. That collaborative process helps decide which combination of methods to use and can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client see one another and use visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection or people who prefer not to use audio. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or day-to-day life while working with registered or accredited professionals.
