Online support

Attachment-informed care and practical online therapy

Horace often uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand attachment needs and repair connection problems that affect relationships and intimacy. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely to the person's experience and building goals from their perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another common tool he uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may blend approaches as needed. The therapist and client set the pace together and adjust strategies based on how things are progressing.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and reading nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and other commitments while keeping continuity of care.
