Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Catherine Edwards integrates practical, skill-based therapies to address anxiety, emotional regulation, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building specific skills to change behaviors and mood; it is often used for stress, anxiety, and self-esteem work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for impulsivity, intense emotions, and relationship conflicts. The Gottman Method is a research-informed couples approach that emphasizes communication skills, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional connection for partners seeking to improve intimacy and resolve ongoing conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Catherine works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and adjusts techniques as therapy progresses so that treatment fits the individual or couple rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexible options to access care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work and family commitments, support continuity of care when life is busy, and allow clients to engage in therapy from locations that are convenient for them.
