Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Kate Evans uses practical, skills-based approaches that translate well to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with motivation or self esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies while teaching concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions and relationship challenges. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle self-observation to reduce reactivity and support emotional balance, useful for stress, anxiety, and improving self-compassion.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful, and clients are involved in choosing strategies that feel manageable and relevant to their lives.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can occur by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or manage care from home. These options support consistent engagement, allow for varied communication styles, and make it possible to continue work on skills and goals between synchronous sessions.
