Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and taking small steps toward what matters. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, panic, OCD symptoms, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on relationship patterns and emotional bonds, helping people understand how early connections affect current relationships and intimacy.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Katie works collaboratively to see which methods fit a person's needs and preferences. She will try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps the client reach their goals and feel more capable day to day.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is helpful. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter updates, or extra support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier and let people pick formats that fit work, caregiving, and daily routines.
