What Is Online Counselling?
Online counselling is a structured therapeutic conversation delivered remotely via secure video (Zoom). As a form of online therapy, it provides a confidential space to explore thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and patterns in a safe and professional setting.
This service can support:
- Stress and anxiety
- Low mood
- Relationship difficulties
- Life transitions
- Work-related pressures
- Problematic sexual behaviours
- Recovery from sex addiction
Although conversational in style, sessions remain clinically informed and can integrate into a wider online therapy plan if deeper or more structured work becomes necessary.
Support for Sex Addiction and Compulsive Sexual Behaviour
IBC Counselling is known for specialist work in sex addiction and compulsive sexual behaviour. Online counselling may form part of a structured sex addiction therapy programme, particularly in early stages of stabilisation and behavioural change.
Sex addiction therapy may address:
- Compulsive pornography use
- Repeated infidelity or risky sexual behaviour
- Escalating sexual patterns
- Shame, secrecy and relationship breakdown
- Relapse prevention planning
Where appropriate, we may also signpost clients to additional UK-based support organisations, including:
- StopSO (Specialist Treatment Organisation for the Prevention of Sexual Offending)
- Sex Addicts Anonymous UK
- Sexaholics Anonymous UK
- COSRT (College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists)
This work sits within your broader online therapy framework, ensuring a structured and ethical approach to recovery.
