Approaches Gerard lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
In practice Gerard uses straightforward conversations to help people identify what matters to them and what small steps they can take next. The therapist and client work together to find approaches that fit the person’s goals and daily life, adjusting as progress is made.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gerard will talk through your goals, preferences and what felt helpful in early sessions, then shape the way forward together. This collaborative process makes it easier to try different ways of working until something feels right.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for full conversations with visual cues, phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options help fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
