Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clients to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that align with personal values. It can be helpful for anxiety, persistent stress and situations where avoidance interferes with daily life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and problems related to coping and mood regulation.
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client's own goals guide the work. This approach supports self-esteem, relationship concerns and personal growth by emphasizing acceptance and the client's innate resources.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kathleen works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which methods best match a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to maintain continuity when life is unpredictable. These options broaden access to ongoing support and make it simpler to practice skills between sessions.
