Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kari commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more balanced patterns. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, often useful for anxiety, stress, and problems with self-talk. Mindfulness Therapy is another approach she draws on - it teaches present-focused awareness techniques that can reduce reactivity and build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings, supporting clients navigating life transitions and ongoing stress. Motivational Interviewing is used to explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for change, which can be especially helpful for goals around self-care, behavior change, or improving relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kari works collaboratively with clients and with other licensed professionals and therapists when appropriate to determine the best fit based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so treatment stays aligned with what is most helpful.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with communication. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and integrate therapy into daily life while allowing the therapist and client to focus on meaningful progress.
