How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Nicole draws on well-established, evidence-based techniques to help with mood and anxiety problems. For example, cognitive-style methods focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them against everyday evidence, which can reduce worry and low mood. Behavioural approaches aim to increase helpful actions and gradual exposure to feared situations, which is useful for social anxiety and avoidance.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Nicole will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which approaches to try and adapt them as progress is made.

Many people find remote sessions helpful because they fit around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins on busy days.
