How Jurgen uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions where people want clearer direction.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without judging and helps the client find their own solutions, which can suit people coping with grief, loneliness or low self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jurgen will discuss different methods and help decide which suits a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing appointments around work. The biography notes certifications in online and telephone counselling, so check the current session options before booking to confirm which formats are offered. Many people find remote sessions helpful for continuing therapy during busy periods or when regular visits are hard to manage.
