Online support
How Carey-Sue uses therapy approaches online
Carey-Sue draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people identify and make sense of key emotions that drive patterns of thinking and behaviour. EFT can be useful for people wanting clearer emotional understanding and better ways to respond to difficult feelings.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can lead the conversation and decide what matters most. Mindfulness Therapy is included to help build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can help with anxiety, sleep and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carey-Sue treats this as a collaboration and will adapt methods to match a person's goals and preferences. Together they look at what helps most and try different ways of working until something fits.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when travel is difficult. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quicker check-ins or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These formats increase flexibility while keeping the focus on progress and connection.
