Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. The therapist offers support, reflection, and validation so people can name goals and next steps. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, empathic presence while they sort through hard feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It uses brief exercises and homework to build skills for anxiety, panic, mood issues, and problem-solving in everyday life. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and bring calm during overwhelming moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kathryn will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most. The process is collaborative, with an emphasis on practical steps that match a client’s needs and preferences.
