Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Andreia commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them and then choose actions that align with their values - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns that limit daily living. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses, supporting people who struggle with abandonment, attachment concerns, or relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Andreia collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy in her practice is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and allows therapy to fit into busy lives and different time zones within the United Kingdom. These options support ongoing access to care, help maintain continuity between sessions, and allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
