CBT and integrative approaches for remote counselling
Laura uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as one key approach. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers practical steps to change patterns that keep problems going. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and stress-related difficulties.She also practises an integrative way of working, drawing on several methods to fit the person's situation. That means elements from person-centred work or psychodynamic ideas may be brought in alongside CBT when they help. The choice of approach is agreed with the client rather than assumed in advance.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. This is a collaborative process and may lead to short-term CBT-focused work or longer-term integrative work depending on need.
The biography states sessions are offered by telephone and by video. If you want a different format, confirm the options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or travel, and can reduce time spent getting to appointments. They also allow regular check-ins and follow-up from wherever you are.
