How these approaches shape online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the here and now. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and supports the client to find their own solutions. This approach can help with stress, low self-esteem and relationship concerns by making it easier to speak openly and test new ways of coping.

Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to earlier relationships and recurring patterns that influence current feelings and choices. It aims to make those patterns clearer so a person can respond differently in work, relationships and intimate life. This can be useful for issues like attachment difficulties, repeated conflicts and feelings of emptiness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yvonne will discuss aims, preferences and what feels most helpful, and she will adapt the mix of client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to match each person’s needs. That way the plan grows from conversation rather than being imposed.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions around busy days and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep continuity during life changes or when juggling work commitments.
