How therapeutic approaches are used in online work

John often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships, helping people understand how past attachment experiences shape current reactions and intimacy concerns.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. This collaborative way of working means the plan can change as you learn more about what helps.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work or caregiving, reduced travel, and quicker check-ins when life gets busy. The original biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and counsellors often adapt exercises, homework and conversation for remote sessions so progress can continue despite a busy schedule.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
