How her approaches work in online therapy
Gillian uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and short tasks to try between meetings, which can be reviewed in later sessions.Client-Centred Therapy is also central to her work, meaning sessions are guided by the person’s pace and priorities. This approach focuses on listening carefully and building a supportive working relationship.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gillian will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions about how to proceed are made collaboratively and can change as needs evolve.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to use breathing and mindfulness practices at home while talking through what helps them most.
