Face-to-face sessions are one of the more popular therapy formats because they provide an opportunity for you to react to any emotions that arise there and then. 

For some, telephone counselling or online/video counselling offers a helpful alternative to face-to-face counselling. This involves talking to your counsellor over the phone or using a platform such as Zoom instead of attending in person. This form of counselling can be particularly useful for those too busy to attend face-to-face sessions and can be carried out in the comfort of your own home. This format also tends to be more flexible and can potentially reduce waiting list times.
