Online session options
How narrative and mindful work translate online
Graham commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people reorganize the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. Narrative work helps when old patterns feel fixed by showing different ways to view events and choices. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following the client’s priorities so sessions move at a comfortable pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean combining narrative reframing with mindfulness practices or DBT skills for emotional regulation, and adjusting approaches over time as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for fuller conversation and reading nonverbal cues. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text allow ongoing reflection between sessions and can fit into busy days. These options make it easier to schedule consistent work without long commutes.
