Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take committed action toward those values while learning to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes because it focuses on meaningful action rather than eliminating difficult emotions.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, validation, and a nonjudgmental listening stance so clients can lead the pace of their own growth. This approach is often helpful for relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, grief, and building stronger communication patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to depression, anxiety, and other ongoing problems. It offers concrete strategies for reducing symptoms and developing more effective coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kathryn will work with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Kathryn can be conducted via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide scheduling flexibility and make it easier to access consistent care from wherever a person is located, supporting continuity and convenience in the therapeutic process.
