How Katie’s approaches work for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce worry and improve mood. It often includes simple experiments and homework between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and communication, which can help when relationship issues or trust concerns are central.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and recommend methods that fit those needs. That plan can change as progress is made, and clients are invited to give feedback about what is or isn’t working.

For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking. Katie’s methods translate well to remote work because many tools are conversational and exercise based, like value-guided actions, thought records, or communication practice. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so work or caregiving responsibilities are easier to balance.
