Integrating Attachment, EMDR, and Cognitive Tools for Online Care



Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and emotion. It helps people understand attachment styles, improve communication, and build more secure bonds in partnerships and families. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - an approach often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming, which can reduce the intensity of traumatic reactions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work, and Kathryn (Katie) Mason collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. The choice of methods can evolve over time as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access consistent support from a therapist without the constraints of travel.
