Online support
How her approaches work online
Catherine uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take small actions that matter. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while committing to behaviors that match what you care about, and it can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes.She also uses client-centered therapy which centers on listening, empathy, and the person’s own goals. That approach helps people feel heard and supported as they sort out priorities and motivation.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT can be useful for managing stress, anxiety, anger, and patterns that keep problems going.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Catherine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for a focused conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is low, chat and messaging suit short check-ins or days when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
