Evidence-Based Therapy Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Ingrid Wells uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support people through trauma, relationship strain, family stress, grief, and life transitions. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people better understand their emotions and needs, which can be especially helpful for couples and families who feel stuck in recurring conflict or disconnection.Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a trauma-informed approach that helps clients relate to different “parts” of themselves with more understanding and self-compassion, which can be useful when coping with painful experiences, guilt and shame, or feeling pulled in competing directions. Strengths-based counselling focuses on identifying existing resources and resilience, helping clients build on what is already working as they move through change.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ingrid works collaboratively with clients to shape therapy around their goals, pace, and preferences, adjusting the focus as needs become clearer over time.
Online therapy can make support easier to fit into everyday life. Clients can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can be especially helpful when balancing parenting, work, or changing schedules.
