How Sabina’s approaches work for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to you. It helps people feel heard and reconnect with their own priorities when dealing with anxiety, loss or low self-esteem.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and what you want to be different. It is useful for people who want practical actions to tackle stress, relationship difficulties or day-to-day coping problems.
Existential ideas explore meaning, values and life choices. This can help when people face big changes, grief, identity questions or feelings of emptiness.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sabina will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, checking in and adapting as therapy progresses.
