How Anthony’s approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and difficulties that tie to values or life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now, and can help with intimacy, trust and feelings of abandonment. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, offering empathetic listening and space to find solutions at the person’s own pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anthony will discuss what feels most relevant and adapt techniques to a person’s goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quieter check-in during a work break. They also let a counsellor use creative tools such as guided reflection or storytelling exercises without needing physical materials. Ask about the available session formats when you schedule so you can choose what suits your routine and needs.
