How person-centred work adapts to online therapy

Rosemin works from a person-centred perspective that centres on empathic listening and following what the client brings. This approach focuses on understanding a person's experience and helping them find their own solutions, which can be effective for grief, depression and life transitions.

She also draws on humanistic ideas that emphasise respect, warmth and the client's strengths. That style supports gentle exploration of feelings and helps people build coping strategies for stress, anger and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs with the client and adjust the way they work together. This means the method can shift over time to better match what is helping and what feels manageable.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around work, childcare or other commitments and reducing travel time.
