Seetal Udeshi, BACP

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways and supports building safer, more reliable connections with others. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of each session. The counsellor uses active listening and reflective responses to help someone name feelings, make sense of choices, and find their own direction. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns of thinking.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Seetal will begin by listening to what matters to the person, discuss possible ways of working, and adapt methods as goals and preferences become clearer. The aim is to choose approaches that feel useful and realistic for everyday life.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy week. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more connection is wanted. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit check-ins or times when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter, more flexible contact and can be used between sessions for brief reflections or check-ins. These formats offer practical flexibility and help people access support from different locations.
