Choosing therapy is a big step, and finding the right format—whether in-person, video, or phone sessions—can make all the difference. Each option offers unique benefits, depending on your lifestyle, comfort level, and personal needs.
For those who value a dedicated, distraction-free space, in-person sessions create a protected environment where you can fully engage in the therapeutic process. Being physically present encourages commitment and consistency, while also allowing us to use various therapeutic techniques tailored to your needs. Simply showing up is part of the healing process—making time for yourself and your growth.
Video sessions offer the best of both worlds—the connection of face-to-face interaction with the convenience of remote support. Seeing your therapist helps with engagement and focus, making it a great option for those who want deeper conversations without the need to travel. It’s a flexible way to prioritise mental well-being while maintaining visual connection.
With video sessions I sometime encourage my clients to switch the view so they can only see themselves – this means you are answering the questions for and to yourself. You are your own best expert and putting you front and center can be both ground breaking and confronting.
If you prefer anonymity and flexibility, phone sessions are a great option. Without the presence of another person in the room, many people find it easier to open up and process their thoughts freely. This option is also perfect for busy schedules, making mental health support more accessible—whenever and wherever you need it.
No matter which format you choose, therapy is about creating space for yourself, whether it’s unpacking emotions, navigating transitions, or breaking old patterns. The most important thing is to find a format that feels right for you—one that allows you to show up, do the work, and move toward the fulfilling life you deserve.
