Online support

How therapeutic approaches fit online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their core emotions so they can respond to themselves with more clarity. It is useful for handling hurt, loss, and patterns that keep returning in everyday life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with them. It supports making choices that reduce suffering from worry, avoidance, or persistent negative thoughts.

Raymond will work with each person to find the approach that fits best. He treats finding the right method as a collaborative process, listening to goals and adjusting methods as needs change. Clients and the therapist set short-term goals and check in regularly to see what is helping.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer talk sessions. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, daily coaching, or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity when life gets unpredictable.
