She combines compassionate listening with practical support to help clients explore feelings, identify patterns and build coping strategies that fit their lives.

Holding BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - Alanna creates an open, non-judgmental space where thoughts and emotions can be shared without fear of criticism. She recognises that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and she is committed to supporting clients through that process with patience and respect.

Integrating Client-Centered and CBT in Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing empathic, non-judgmental support that helps clients lead conversations about what matters most to them. It is useful for exploring emotions, building self-worth and strengthening confidence by putting the client’s experience at the centre of the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours; it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related difficulties and supports practical skill-building.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Alanna will work collaboratively with each person to determine what best meets their needs, goals and preferences. Many licensed professionals use elements of both client-centered work and CBT, and Alanna adapts these methods in partnership with clients to create a personalised plan.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be attended by video call or phone, and additional support can be provided through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow people to connect from different locations and provide continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
