  • Is Online Therapy Effective , the evidence base for online therapy Is Online Therapy Effective Why I Work Online I chose to work exclusively online because it allows me to reach clients across the UK who might otherwise struggle to access specialist support. Many of the issues I specialise in , coercive control, stalking, institutional harm , are not well served by generalist local therapists. Working online means you can access specialist expertise regardless of where you live. For clients affected by stalking or domestic abuse, online therapy also removes the safety risks associated with travelling to a fixed clinic location. Languages I offer therapy in five languages: English, French, German, Persian (Farsi), and Spanish. Being able to work in the language closest to your experience can make therapy significantly more effective.

Sessions take place via Google Meet. I send you a link before each session and you join from wherever you feel comfortable.

If your internet drops, we can switch to a telephone call as backup.
