Attachment, skills-based approaches and online therapy

Susan Hill integrates attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients understand patterns in relationships and develop practical coping tools. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relational patterns affect present connections, which can be helpful for people dealing with intimacy, trust, or attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to ease symptoms of depression, low self-esteem, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Susan partners with clients to review their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts methods as therapy progresses so the plan stays aligned with the client’s needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and differing comfort levels. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and fit appointments into daily life. Licensed professionals can use these formats to apply the same therapeutic tools and skills-focused work used in face-to-face settings, while adapting delivery to suit each client.
