How Catherine’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead and makes changes based on what matters most to them, which can help with relationship and self-esteem concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful patterns.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions and then use that awareness to improve important relationships and attachment concerns. It is useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when connection has become strained.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Catherine will work collaboratively to identify which methods best fit the client’s goals and preferences, and she will adjust techniques as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and remove travel time so people can schedule around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and focus to practical everyday needs.
