Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Josie draws on Jungian therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online sessions. Jungian therapy looks at personal symbols, dreams and life patterns to help people understand deeper themes that influence their feelings and behaviour. It can be useful for people who want to make sense of long-standing patterns or explore meaning in their lives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values; it is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with change.The choice of approach is a collaborative decision. Josie will talk through options and try techniques that fit the person’s needs and goals. Together they check what feels helpful and adjust the method as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed, and messaging suits shorter updates or when typed reflection helps. These options allow people to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
