Her practice pays attention to practical coping strategies alongside exploring personal stories and relationships.

People who want clear tools, steady support, and a collaborative counseling style may find her approach useful for managing life changes and restoring balance.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Hattie commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy with mindfulness practices to help clients work through problems online. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own perspective and goals, using active listening and empathy to help them find their own solutions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing or attention exercises that reduce reactivity and support coping with strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hattie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts techniques so sessions stay practical and relevant to daily life.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls work well for conversation and guided exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep continuity when life gets hectic.
