Online session options
How therapeutic approaches work online
Le uses Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as two of his core approaches. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories and re-author those stories, which can ease shame and isolation. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed actions, useful when people feel stuck or overwhelmed.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs. Sessions can adapt over time, mixing narrative work, ACT exercises and practical skills from cognitive approaches as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection or when writing feels easier than talking.
These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life, while letting the therapist and client focus on what works best for the person.
