Online therapy approach
Padraic combines a person-centred foundation with targeted cognitive behavioral work when meeting remotely. In video or phone sessions he focuses on attentive listening and collaborative exploration while using CBT techniques to identify thought patterns and develop practical coping strategies.
He also integrates psychodynamic perspectives to explore recurring emotional and relational patterns alongside solution-focused techniques to set short-term, achievable goals. The work is collaborative: Padraic invites the person to help set the agenda, pace, and priorities so that each session reflects what matters most to them.
Remote appointments can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options are used to support ongoing dialogue, brief exercises, and focused planning in modes that fit individual preferences.
