If someone wants to explore emotional patterns or try new ways of coping, she helps set clear steps toward those goals.

How Catherine’s approaches work in online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments to see what changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience without judgment, which helps when people need a space to process feelings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and manage stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine collaborates with each person to choose which methods feel most helpful for their goals. She will adjust techniques over time based on what is working and what the person wants to focus on.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works well for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
