How Roderic uses CBT and psychodynamic work online
Roderic draws on cognitive-behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to teach practical coping techniques. CBT often includes simple exercises people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage panic symptoms and improve sleep.He also uses psychodynamic ideas to help uncover repeating patterns that come from earlier relationships and life experiences. That work looks at where difficult feelings come from so people can make different choices in the present.
Finding the best approach is a shared process. Roderic aims to learn what matters to each person and will suggest ways of working that suit their goals and preferences. He balances short-term strategies with deeper exploration when that fits the client's needs.
