How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Many clients work with Kathryn using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying specific thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking. CBT is practical and often helps with anxiety, depression, and guilt by breaking problems into manageable steps.She also uses Solution-Focused work, which looks for small, achievable changes and builds on what already works. This approach is goal-oriented and can help people make quick adjustments for relationship problems, parenting stress, or life transitions.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Kathryn will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and help decide which techniques to try first. She checks in and adjusts the plan as you notice what helps and what does not.
