How Alexis’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach aim to create space to speak freely and to shape the work around the client’s own goals. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their reasons to change and to build personal commitment; used online it supports decision-making about small, achievable steps. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what works and on simple, practical goals to try between sessions.

Choosing the right way of working is collaborative. Alexis will talk through these approaches and help decide which fits the person’s needs, goals and preferences. He adapts methods as progress is made so the plan remains practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of formats. Video calls let people see one another and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be quicker and easier when bandwidth or visual focus is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, ongoing prompts and people who prefer typing. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum between sessions.
