Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care
Cathy commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and adult relationship patterns to help people understand how connections shape feelings and behavior, and it can be useful for relationship, abandonment, and attachment issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration so clients feel heard and can explore values, self-esteem, and life transitions at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Cathy works collaboratively with each client to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps tailor care to issues such as trauma, parenting concerns, addiction, or coping with life changes.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to integrate therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from a licensed professional without the need to travel. For many clients, remote sessions provide a practical, effective way to receive consistent care.
