How Tina works online
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to break down unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and stress because it offers clear steps and exercises to practise between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether a client-centred, CBT or combined way of working is best, and they adjust as the work progresses in a collaborative way.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy week. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often tailor session length and homework tasks to suit someone’s schedule, helping therapy to fit around work, family and other commitments.
