Approach to Online Therapy and Clinical Methods

Emotionally Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people and couples explore and reshape emotional responses in close relationships. It focuses on identifying interaction patterns and building stronger emotional bonds, which can be especially useful for relationship distress, attachment concerns, and intimacy-related issues.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity. It is commonly used for post-traumatic stress and other trauma-related symptoms and aims to help clients integrate traumatic experiences more adaptively.

Solveig also draws from trauma-focused practices to address the lasting impacts of abuse, loss, and major life changes. Selecting the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Solveig collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to engage in therapy from different locations and at times that suit their schedules, making it easier to maintain consistent care and apply therapeutic work to everyday life.
