Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Rebecca combines Jungian-informed exploration with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to shape online work. Jungian therapy looks at personal symbols, dreams, and life themes to help people find meaning and notice repeating patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values, mindful acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings, and taking small actions that move someone toward what matters. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships influence current trust, communication, and closeness issues.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Rebecca will listen to goals and concerns, try techniques together, and adjust methods based on what helps most. The process includes checking in about what feels useful and combining skill-building with deeper reflection when appropriate.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets you work face-to-face for longer sessions and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and fit sessions into work, school, or family schedules.
