Background and approach

The work is open-ended and shaped by each person’s pace and needs. She describes counselling as a space to talk through thoughts people may not share elsewhere. Ariana listens with empathy and avoids giving direct advice, instead encouraging clients to take the lead in decisions about their lives.

People can expect honest conversations that sometimes feel difficult. Ariana acknowledges this and stays alongside clients while they explore painful or confusing feelings. She offers 30 or 45 minute sessions depending on what suits someone best.

Ariana has four years’ experience and provides sessions in English across the United Kingdom. Therapy is offered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people select the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

A client-centred approach focuses on the person’s own experience. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, helping them gain clarity and confidence about choices and feelings.

Existential-informed work looks at life questions and meaning. It can help when people face big changes, feel stuck, or want to reconnect with what matters to them.

Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice patterns that come from past relationships and memories. This can be useful for understanding recurring problems like anxiety, attachment worries or repeating relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will discuss needs, goals and preferences and will work collaboratively to choose ways of working that fit. Clients are invited to feed back as therapy progresses so methods can be adjusted.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for deeper weekly work, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat suits quick check-ins or shorter sessions. These options let people fit counselling around work, family or other commitments while keeping regular contact with their therapist.
