Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kathryn uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as core components of her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship where the client’s values and goals guide the process - this approach helps with self-esteem, decision-making, and motivation. CBT is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and develop strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and stress.
She also integrates solution-focused techniques to help clients set clear, achievable goals and find immediate steps toward improvement. Solution-focused work is particularly useful for addressing specific problems like relationship concerns, career challenges, or coping with life changes. Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process - Kathryn collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives by enabling sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during transitions, reduce travel time, and access support from home. Kathryn and other licensed professionals use these methods to provide consistent, goal-driven therapy that adapts to clients’ schedules and communication preferences.
