Background and approach

He also looks at parts of life that can be changed, such as routines, work demands or communication habits, and makes practical plans to improve them. Miles uses a research-informed approach that considers the whole person and their context. He pays attention to how relationships, habits and roles shape mood and behaviour.

He works with issues such as low self-esteem, depression, ADHD-related struggles, career uncertainty and difficulties with commitment or communication. Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. Conversations aim to identify small experiments you can try between meetings.

He emphasises respect, sensitivity and a non-judgemental attitude while helping people build skills for managing anxiety and stress. People typically use his practice to sort out life changes, work pressures, feelings of emptiness or isolation, and to rebuild confidence. He encourages practical steps and honest conversation to move forward at a pace that suits each person.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support

Miles draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with anxiety and related problems. One common method is cognitive work that helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, reduce worry cycles and build clearer thinking patterns; this often suits anxiety and low mood. Another approach addresses routines and behaviour - identifying small, practical changes to daily life that reduce stress and improve focus, which is helpful for work pressures and ADHD-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that fit your situation. That choice is collaborative, and plans can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy around work or family life. Video is useful for a conversation close to an in-person session. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let you write when it suits you and follow up between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing a busy schedule.
