How Client-Centred Therapy translates to online work
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement and mirrors what someone is feeling back to them. This approach helps with issues like anxiety, low mood, grief and understanding relationship patterns by encouraging self-awareness and acceptance.In practice, Catherine’s sessions focus on being present with what matters to the client. She uses gentle questioning and reflective listening to help people notice their own thoughts and choices. This method supports work on attachment concerns, communication problems and life transitions in a collaborative way.
Finding the right way to work is part of therapy. Catherine will discuss which style and pace suit each person and decide together what to try first. That collaborative planning helps make sure the work matches the client’s goals and preferences.
