Remote therapy with a person-centred focus
Jake offers online sessions that are grounded in a person-centred stance, where the client’s perspective guides the work. In remote meetings he prioritises listening and tailoring the conversation and plan to what a person identifies as most important. He draws on a mix of clinical approaches and adapts them to the individual’s pace and objectives.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used alongside the person-centred framework to help people notice thinking and behaviour patterns and try practical strategies to address specific concerns. Motivational Interviewing can be applied when someone wants to explore and strengthen their motivation for change, such as with addictions, smoking or other behaviour shifts. Trauma-Focused approaches are available when past harm is a central feature of the work.
Sessions can be arranged by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and Jake aims to match the method to what the client finds most helpful. This mix of approaches supports collaborative planning and flexible ways of working together.
