Therapeutic Approaches Frances Uses for Online Care

Frances Fuller draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor online therapy to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and patterns formed early in life - it helps people understand how those patterns affect current connections and can guide work on building more secure, supportive relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develops concrete skills to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often benefiting those coping with trauma and related symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Frances works together with clients to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adapting the plan as progress unfolds so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Frances is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and daily responsibilities.
