Therapeutic approaches and online care with Katherine

In her work Katherine commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and mood instability. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers a mix of emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills useful for managing intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings, which can support stress reduction and improved coping across many concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Katherine collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors techniques from these approaches to create a practical plan that fits the client’s life and circumstances.

Online therapy with Katherine is designed to be flexible and accessible - available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can work on goals and skills from home or wherever they are. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, schedule sessions around busy lives, and access licensed professionals when in-person visits are not possible.
