Online support
Attachment-informed care and skills-based online therapy
Trish uses attachment-based thinking to notice how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and reactions. That approach helps people understand why certain situations trigger strong emotions and how to build more supported ways of relating.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions toward them even when emotions feel difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Both approaches help with anxiety, depression, trauma responses, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Trish will work with each person to pick techniques that fit their goals, comfort, and everyday life. Sessions blend listening, skill practice, and short between-session tasks so people can test what works for them.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility - video for face-to-face conversation, phone for lower bandwidth or shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging for quick updates or when typing feels easier. The variety makes it simpler to keep continuity of care around work, health, and family demands.
