Online support
Practical approaches for online progress
Hazel commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and change thoughts and behaviors that keep stress or low mood going, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and self-esteem work. Motivational Interviewing focuses on building personal motivation for change and is often used when people are working through substance use or making big life shifts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Hazel will listen to goals and try methods that match a person's needs and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan so the approach feels useful and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues during a deeper check-in. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, scheduling, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep progress moving forward.
