Online support
Emotion and Attachment Work Online
Thomes commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and process strong feelings that affect relationships. EFT focuses on the here-and-now of emotions and helps people respond differently when they feel stuck or overwhelmed.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current relationships and reactions. That approach helps people notice repeating patterns and try new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her practice too, which means she listens closely and shapes sessions around each person’s goals and pace.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Thomes will discuss options and collaborate on a plan that fits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts methods as work progresses so the sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skills practice, while phone sessions can fit into a busy day with less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, daily coping prompts, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
