Shaun Gordon , BACP

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person’s priorities. It helps people who need a respectful, steady space to talk through feelings and decisions.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce overwhelm and notice patterns of thought. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with strong emotions.

Solution-focused therapy is forward-looking and task-oriented, concentrating on small, practical steps and what is already working. People often use it to manage life changes, set goals and build coping strategies quickly.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Shaun will discuss the options with each person and agree a plan based on their needs, goals and preferences. The choice of methods is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions give several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit into busy schedules and let someone communicate without being on camera. These formats make it easier to work around commitments and access therapy from different locations.
