Therapeutic approaches for online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in close connections. By exploring attachment styles and relational history, this approach helps people address issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, and repeating relationship patterns that cause distress.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritises the person's own experience and pace, offering empathic listening and acceptance to encourage self-exploration and growth. It is useful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and clarifying life priorities when someone needs a supportive, non-directive space.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical strategies and skill-building. It is often applied to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress by teaching tools to manage symptoms and change thinking patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Luisa Passalacqua works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts work over time based on what proves most helpful.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and connect with a therapist from different locations while preserving a consistent therapeutic relationship.
